Description

U.S. forces seize another sanctioned oil tanker off Venezuelas coast, marking the second such action in less than two weeks. President Trump continues to pressure President Maduro, demanding the return of assets seized from U.S. oil companies. The moves are part of broader U.S. operations in the region, including a naval buildup and strikes on suspected drug-smuggling boats. Tensions rise as Maduro claims the real goal is to force him out, while top White House advisors signal more pressure ahead.
