Summary
In the aftermath of the United States’ removal of Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro on January 3rd, 2026, the world is rife with speculation as to the reasons for the operation, ranging from oil politics, drug interdiction, and broader geopolitical rivalries between the United States and the coalition of global superpowers in the BRICS alliance.
