Latin America is navigating 'uncharted waters' following a dramatic U.S. military operation in Venezuela that forcibly removed President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, sparking regional tensions and questions about Washington's next steps. 🌍💥
Former Chilean minister Jorge Heine, who also served as Chile's ambassador to China, warned this week that the intervention 'might be the first of a number of other military operations' by the U.S. in the region. Speaking to CGTN, he emphasized that 'regime change doesn't happen just by removing the head of state'—highlighting challenges in stabilizing Venezuela post-operation.
Venezuela's Defense Minister publicly reaffirmed support for Maduro this week, while interim President Delcy Rodríguez has vowed to maintain his policies. The political shakeup comes as regional analysts debate whether this signals a new era of foreign intervention in Latin America. 🔍🇻🇪
With Trump's press conference leaving 'more questions than answers,' as Heine noted, young professionals and students across the globe are watching closely—especially those tracking how shifting power dynamics could impact trade, migration patterns, and cultural exchanges. 📈🌐
