Nicolas Maduro

Nicolas Maduro is the President of Venezuela. He is newsworthy due to recent events involving the United States under President Donald Trump. According to news reports, Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were abducted during a US military strike against Venezuela. This action has been criticized by Brazil's President Lula, who called it an unacceptable line against regional stability. Trump's actions towards Venezuela, including encouraging oil executives to invest there and potentially seeking regime change to access Venezuela's oil reserves, highlight Maduro's significance as a central figure in US foreign policy and regional geopolitics. The situation underscores the shifting global order and the potential for increased tensions in the region.
