Former U.S. President Donald Trump has ruled out launching a Venezuela war but issued a stark warning to President Nicolás Maduro, suggesting that his time in power may soon come to an end. Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was not eyeing a military conflict but added that “Maduro’s days are numbered.”
Trump’s remarks reignited global discussion about the Venezuela war situation, which has been a recurring topic since Washington imposed sanctions and recognized opposition leader Juan Guaidó as the interim president. The statement fueled speculation about possible U.S. actions that could pressure Caracas without direct military involvement.
While Trump avoided confirming any war intentions, his tone reflected America’s ongoing stance toward the Maduro government. Analysts say such remarks could signal intensified diplomatic and economic efforts instead of a Venezuela war scenario. The U.S. has long accused Maduro of undermining democracy and mismanaging Venezuela’s once-booming oil economy.
In recent developments, tensions deepened after Caracas accused the CIA of backing a military conspiracy against the Venezuelan government. Local reports revealed that authorities are investigating an alleged foreign-backed plot, which officials claim aims to destabilize the state and provoke internal unrest.
Observers believe Trump’s latest comments could reignite fears of confrontation but may also indicate a calculated move to isolate Maduro politically rather than pursue a full-scale Venezuela war. As both countries continue to trade accusations, uncertainty looms over what comes next for the oil-rich South American nation.
