Summary

What is the real reason that Trump wanted to remove Nicolas Maduro? Could he be about to do the same thing in other countries? And why is he saying he “needs” Greenland? After the audacious events in Venezuela which saw President Nicolas Maduro removed by American special forces and taken to New York to face trial, Richard and Yalda discuss what could happen next in the region. Richard is in Colombia and tells Yalda what the mood is like in the neighbouring country. Yalda also talks about what is happening in Iran and why she thinks Israel could strike the country this year. You can also watch the podcast on our YouTube channel here.
