The United States has seized Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro’s airplane after determining that its acquisition was in violation of US sanctions, among other criminal issues. The US flew the aircraft to Florida on Monday, according to two US officials.
But this a fascinating move by the US government (for better or worse). I assume the justification is that we have an immigration problem stemming from the internal policies of Venezuela. And this is an attempt to create an environment in Venezuela where people feel less compelled to leave.
Venezuela just deported some people who fought for Ukraine to Russia. Putin just pushed the nuclear doomsday clock forward. I imagine the US wanted Maduro for a bit but there is some serious escalation between the west and Russia in the last few days makes me think this is somewhat tied to it
Interesting theory Mr. Doom.
A bit paranoid in my opinion. They Russian conundrum goes deeper but notice how they stopped talking about tactical nukes long ago.

Or that he’s part of the most wanted list of people for driving a narco terrorist cartel that put him on a US sections list.
I think this is a move against Russia
Please elaborate, how?
