US Kidnapping of Maduro: Why the Operation Benefits Russia and China

According to ТСН: The swift US operation to kidnap Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro could become a strategic resource for Russia and China.

Potential Consequences for International Politics

According to an international analyst, such a move could raise concerns among autocrats, as no one wants to find themselves in a situation where they could be kidnapped and extradited to a foreign court.

"The US has just unexpectedly severed the main South American tentacle of the global anti-American connection,"
the expert notes.

Putin's Concerns

The author also points out that these events could increase Vladimir Putin's anxiety.

"Today, Putin has even more reasons to worry about his personal security, considering that the International Criminal Court has accused him of serious war crimes committed in Ukraine,"
he emphasizes. While Moscow has lost an ally in the form of the Venezuelan dictator, this situation may present an opportunity for it.

Execution of the Operation

It should be noted that the US launched a significant strike against Venezuela, during which

"President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores were captured and taken out of the country,"
President Donald Trump stated. The operation took place in close cooperation with American law enforcement agencies and was deemed successful.

According to American media reports, the actual military action lasted less than 30 minutes. During the attack, at least seven explosions were heard, causing panic among the residents of the Venezuelan capital, Caracas. People took to the streets, observing low-flying aircraft and sharing videos on social media.

This special operation demonstrates a new phase in US foreign policy, which could lead to new geopolitical changes in Latin America. At the same time, it will be very interesting to monitor the reactions of Moscow and Beijing to these events, as they may try to use the situation to strengthen their positions in the region.
