US Detains Maduro: How Operation Absolute Resolve Disrupted Agreement with Turkey

Operation Absolute Resolve and the Arrest of Nicolás Maduro

According to Главком: The US executed Operation Absolute Resolve, resulting in the detention of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. This operation marked a significant milestone in the relations between the US and Venezuela, as Maduro rejected an offer to leave for Turkey in exchange for concessions in oil production before his arrest. The operation concluded with Maduro being arrested along with his wife Cilia Flores and taken to the US.

Donald Trump announced the successful operation against Maduro, which attracted the attention of the international community. Maduro, who has held the presidency of Venezuela since March 5, 2013, now faces serious charges. He will be charged with the illegal trafficking of weapons and drugs. The new indictment also includes Maduro's wife and son, indicating the gravity of the situation.

International Reaction and Consequences

The agreement for Maduro to leave for Turkey was proposed on December 23 but was not accepted. This decision served as a basis for activating Operation Absolute Resolve, which was conducted in Venezuela. According to The New York Times, the operation turned out to be extensive and complex but ultimately successful. Now the world awaits further developments concerning this arrest.

The detention of Nicolás Maduro could significantly alter the political landscape of Venezuela and the relations between the United States and Latin America. Operation Absolute Resolve, which has caused considerable international resonance, may threaten the stability of Maduro's regime, which has faced internal and external challenges for many years. Meanwhile, the further actions of the US and the reaction of Venezuelan society to these events remain in question, which could have important consequences for regional security and politics.
