President Donald Trump has intensified his attacks on Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, accusing him of drug trafficking and mass migration issues, while escalating military presence in the Caribbean under the guise of an anti-drug campaign. Maduro seeks peace with the US but insists on sovereignty, condemning US actions as attempts to topple his government. The US has deployed significant military assets, including an aircraft carrier and thousands of troops, raising concerns over potential conflict. Amidst these tensions, legal scholars question the legality of US strikes on alleged drug boats, with UN Secretary-General Guterres expressing concern over escalating hostilities.
