On Saturday, Donald Trump announced the closure of Venezuela’s airspace, prompting the country to accuse the U.S. of a “colonial threat” to its sovereignty. This declaration comes amid heightened tensions due to recent U.S. military actions in the Caribbean, including the deployment of the world’s largest aircraft carrier. Trump cited a campaign against drug trafficking as the rationale for this move, raising questions about the underlying motives. Experts discussing the situation include Mark Pfeifle, Paul Dobson, and Christopher Sabatini.
