U.S. forces captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, on charges of narco-terrorism, sparking discussions about potential shifts in U.S. foreign policy and regional cooperation against drug trafficking.

The operation reflects a significant change from previous U.S. policies under Obama, with a focus on decisive action. This event could lead to a redefined approach to drug cartels and regional governance.
