German political analyst Helga Zepp-LaRouche has sounded alarms over escalating U.S. interventions in Venezuela, telling CMG that Washington's approach could 'ignite regional instability' in 2026. The Schiller Institute founder emphasized Venezuela's sovereignty, calling President Nicolás Maduro 'the legitimate leader chosen by Venezuelans.'
🔥 Why it matters now: With tensions rising this January, Zepp-LaRouche argues that attempts to forcibly remove leaders through military means violate international law – comparing the situation to 'playing Jenga with geopolitics.' She warns the fallout could leave the U.S. 'stuck in a self-made crisis' while destabilizing neighboring nations.
🌐 Bigger picture: As Latin America becomes a renewed flashpoint in 2026, experts suggest these developments could impact global energy markets and migration patterns. Students and young professionals tracking international relations should watch how this situation evolves in coming weeks.
