- Summary:
- In early 2026, the United States launched a controversial military operation in Venezuela that resulted in the capture of long-time president Nicolás Maduro and the effective assumption of governing authority by the U.S. administration. While framed by American officials as an effort to remove an authoritarian leader and stabilize the country, critics argue the intervention was driven primarily by Venezuela's vast oil reserves-the largest in the world. Decades of mismanagement and corruption had reduced Venezuela's oil output to a fraction of its former capacity, deepening economic collapse and humanitarian distress.
