Venezuela has launched an investigation into the high-stakes U.S. military operation that resulted in President Nicolás Maduro's seizure last month, Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino López announced Wednesday. The probe aims to analyze the January 3 incident that shocked global observers, with officials citing 'extremely high technology' used during the operation. 🔬💻
While details remain scarce, Padrino López confirmed the investigation will inform updates to Venezuela's Bolivarian National Armed Forces transformation plan. 'This will allow us to learn, evaluate, and make adjustments,' he stated during National Dignity Day commemorations – a date symbolizing Venezuela's political resilience. 🇻🇪⚙️
The announcement raises questions about evolving defense strategies in Latin America, particularly regarding foreign military interventions. Tech analysts speculate whether drone systems, cyber operations, or advanced surveillance tech played roles in the operation. 🛰️🔐
