Participants in a solidarity protest with Venezuela gather in front of the US Consulate in Krakow, Poland, on January 4, 2026. On January 3, 2026, the United States strikes Caracas and several other cities, while Delta Force abducts Venezuela's president and dictator, Nicolás Maduro, along with his wife. He faces multiple charges related to drug cartels. Since August 2025, the U.S. bombs 37 vessels, resulting in 110 deaths, prompting objections from humanitarian organizations due to the lack of evidence linking those targeted to drug trafficking. In December, the United States closes Venezuelan airspace, and the CIA carries out an attack on a port along Venezuela's coast, seizing three Venezuelan oil tankers. The regime attempts to negotiate a transfer of power and access to asylum, but Donald Trump rejects this. Initially, the U.S. president maintains that the attacks are driven by the fight against drug trafficking and the protection of American citizens; however, in recent statements, he shifts his rhetoric. Only 5–10 percent of the cocaine reaching the United States originates from the Venezuelan route, accounting for less than 1 percent of overdose deaths in the U.S. Protesters oppose the U.S. attacks and its interference in Venezuelan politics, as well as its 'regime change' policy, which they view as a tool of imperial expansion.
