Following the arrest of Nicolás Maduro and fears of U.S. intervention, a leader of Colombian insurgents, Ivan Mordisco, has called for Latin American guerrilla groups to unite against the United States. Mordisco urged rival factions, including the National Liberation Army (ELN), to set aside their differences and form a "super guerrilla" alliance. The appeal comes after decades of conflict between groups over territory and drug routes. Colombian President Gustavo Petro has responded by calling for cooperation with Venezuela to dismantle drug-trafficking guerrillas. Reports of a potential joint military operation involving the U.S., Colombia, and Venezuela have also emerged, raising the possibility of dismantling the ELN.
