The Double-Edged Sword of U.S. Influence: Helping or Harming Venezuela?

Back with another episode, Connor and Juette dive into the recent U.S.-led removal of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela. They debate the operation’s legality, the role of foreign powers, and parallels to past interventions, such as the bin Laden raid. The conversation raises concerns about U.S. motives—questioning whether the intervention benefits Venezuelans or serves American interests, particularly regarding oil. They reflect on historical successes and failures of regime change, emphasizing the need for equitable outcomes and cautioning against repeating past mistakes, ultimately advocating for Venezuelan self-determination and responsible U.S. involvement.
