The USA has officially released the picture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro escorted from the plane to a cell in the United States by DEA agents. He and his wife Cilia Flores were captured alive during US invasion to Venezuela and was flown out of the country by the US Army Delta Force. Ahead of the overnight strikes, the U.S. had accused Maduro of running a “narco-state” and rigging the 2024 election, which the opposition said it won overwhelmingly. The Venezuelan leader, a 63-year-old former bus driver handpicked by the dying Hugo Chavez to succeed him in 2013, has denied those claims and said Washington was intent on taking control of his nation’s oil reserves, the largest in the world.
