U.S. to Dictate Venezuela's Future, White House Declares

The White House has stated that the future of Venezuela will be "dictated" by the United States. This follows the recent collapse of the Nicolás Maduro government. On Wednesday, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the U.S. is in close contact with Venezuela's interim authorities. The announcement signals a firm embrace of a policy of American dominance in the region. The statement confirms a decisive shift in U.S. strategy. Washington is now positioned to directly shape the political and economic rebuilding of the oil-rich nation. No timeline for new elections or the structure of the transitional government was provided. The U.S. has previously led international sanctions against Maduro's administration, citing corruption and human rights abuses.
