Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel Peace laureate María Corina Machado said that she fully supports President Donald Trump's strategy toward Venezuela, arguing that increased U.S. pressure has left Nicolás Maduro's regime vulnerable and closer to collapse.

The U.S. seizure of a supertanker loaded with Venezuelan crude is expected to force black-market buyers to demand even deeper discounts, further tightening financial pressure on authoritarian President Nicolás Maduro.

The large tanker seized by the U.S. off the coast of Venezuela earlier this week is already on its way to Houston, according to a new report.

Reports about a double-tap strike against an alleged drug vessel noted that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth instructed the military to leave no survivors, prompting Adm.

Venezuela's authoritarian President Nicolás Maduro is increasingly isolated as Beijing and Moscow limit their support to rhetoric while focusing on other geopolitical priorities, according to regional analysts cited by BBC Mundo.

The U.S. military flew two Navy F/A-18 fighter jets over the Gulf of Venezuela on Tuesday, marking what appears to be the closest approach to Venezuelan territory since the Trump administration launched its regional pressure campaign against the Maduro regime.

The documents also reference a detailed analysis of the Venezuelan military which suggests a transition would require only a "limited purge" of senior regime figures
