Authored by John Haughey via The Epoch Times,
With the U.S. capture of Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro in a bold Jan. 3 military raid and a large naval force still prowling the southern Caribbean to ensure that Maduro's successors cooperate with the Trump administration, other subtle, but key, developments in the region can be overlooked.
Among under-the-wire events is a December 2025 agreement between the United States and Venezuela's neighbor, Guyana. That agreement could have profound implications, not only in the immediate context of unfolding events in Venezuela, but also for the long-term execution of the Trump Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine, unveiled in November 2025 by U.S. President Donald Trump.
