Operation Absolute Resolve: Capturing Maduro

  • 🚀 President Trump announced a successful military operation, dubbed "Operation Absolute Resolve," to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Celia Flores.
  • 💡 The operation was described as an "extraordinary military operation" and a "spectacular assault" utilizing overwhelming American military power, comparable to World War II operations.
  • 🎯 The objective was to bring the "outlaw dictator" Maduro to justice for alleged "campaign of deadly narco-terrorism against the United States and its citizens."
  • ✅ The mission was flawlessly executed with no American service members killed and no American equipment lost, highlighting American military competence and precision.

Rationale and Justification for the Operation

  • ⚠️ Maduro is accused of being the kingpin of a vast criminal network, including the "cartel de las solless," responsible for trafficking deadly drugs into the United States, causing countless American deaths.
  • 💰 Venezuela is accused of unilaterally seizing and stealing American oil and assets, costing billions of dollars, which the current administration vows to reclaim.
  • 🌍 The operation is framed as a move to restore peace, liberty, and justice to Venezuela, preventing hostile foreign powers from controlling the region and acquiring menacing weapons.

US Administration of Venezuela and Future Plans

  • 🤝 The United States intends to run Venezuela until a safe, proper, and judicious transition can take place, emphasizing that they will not allow another hostile regime to take over.
  • 🏗️ Plans include rebuilding Venezuela's oil infrastructure with significant investment from American oil companies, which will generate revenue for the country.
  • 🇺🇸 The US will ensure the people of Venezuela are taken care of, as well as those who were forced out of the country and are now in the United States.

Military Execution and Global Implications

  • ⚡ The operation involved over 150 aircraft launching from 20 different bases, demonstrating unprecedented coordination and integration of joint forces.
  • 🛰️ Advanced intelligence capabilities, including from the CIA, NSA, and NGA, were crucial in planning and executing the mission.
  • 🌍 The success of this operation serves as a warning to anyone who would threaten American sovereignty or endanger American lives, reinforcing American dominance in the Western Hemisphere.

Broader Foreign Policy Context

  • 🇨🇺 A message is sent to Cuba and its leader, Díaz-Canel, highlighting Cuba's current failing state and the potential for US involvement.
  • 🇷🇺 Regarding Russia, President Trump expressed dissatisfaction with Putin's actions in Ukraine, stating the war should have never happened and that he wants to stop the loss of life.
  • ⚖️ The pardon of the former president of Honduras is explained as a case of unfair persecution, distinct from Maduro's alleged crimes.
