Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado praised President Donald Trump’s efforts to combat narco-terrorism during an interview with ‘Sunday Morning Futures,’ calling the actions a significant step toward ending the ‘war.’ Machado emphasized the Maduro regime’s deep entwinement with illegal drug networks, arguing that Trump’s actions could mark a turning point in addressing Venezuela’s crisis.
During the interview, Machado discussed the Maduro regime’s role in fueling drug trafficking, linking it to the broader challenges facing Venezuela. She argued that the current government’s ties to narco-terrorism have exacerbated the country’s economic and social collapse, and that Trump’s crackdown could provide much-needed international pressure to disrupt these networks.
Machado also addressed the broader implications of Trump’s policy on Venezuela, suggesting that his actions could signal a shift in U.S. foreign policy toward the region. She expressed hope that continued pressure on the Maduro regime would lead to greater international support for democratic reforms in Venezuela.
