America's
raid on Venezuela has paid off. Or so it
seems. Trump is now signaling that he
can force Caracus back into line, open
the door to new energy deals on US
terms, and curb the influence of rival
powers in the hemisphere. And while the
optics suggest closure, reality points
to the start of a far more difficult and
dangerous phase. For two decades,
Venezuela has been the single largest
driver of regional instability, fueling
mass migration, crossber crime, and
economic distress across the continent.
And so from Washington's perspective,
stabilizing Venezuela is not just about
oil or geopolitics. It is about tackling
the sources of those problems before
they reach the US border. But history
warns against easy victories. When the
United States toppled Saddam in 2003,
the mission quickly collapsed into
insurgency, fractured authority, and
years of costly involvement. Venezuela
now sits at a similar inflection point.
Removing Maduro may clear the path for a
genuine political transition, but it
could just as easily pull America into
open-ended commitments. Sometimes even
superpowers trip over their own shadow.
Maduro is unlikely to see daylight
anytime soon, but his removal does not
mean the ruin of Venezuela's government
or the end of Chavismo as an ideology.
Power in Karakas has never rested in a
single institution. It functions as a
coalition stitched together by
patronage, access to oil revenues, and
control over hard power. With the
arbitrator of that system gone, the
coalition is now at risk of splintering.
The decisive variable is the military.
Some commanders will move quickly to
bargain with whatever authority emerges.
Others will hold out, betting that
uncertainty works in their favor.
Civilian power brokers such as
governors, party officials, and business
tycoons will move the same way, hedging
rather than committing. Trump, however,
has other plans. He prefers Vice
President Deli Rodriguez as interim
leader on the condition that she
delivers on US demands. If she fails,
the White House has threatened to use
its naval task force in the Caribbean to
cut off oil exports. Venezuela's
economic lifeline. But it's not that
black and white. Rodriguez sits in a
trap of her own. If she complies fully
with Trump's demands, she risks being
toppled as a traitor by hardliners
within the ruling party. At the same
time, if she goes against Trump, she
