Venezuela Says Trump Has Designated 'Non-Existent' Drug Cartel As Terrorist Org; US Covert Ops Believed 'Imminent'
With talk of anti-Caracas US covert operations set to begin imminently, President Trump's labelling of the so-called "Cartel de los Soles" as a foreign terrorist organization has become official, and taken effect Monday.
However, Venezuela has hit back, rejecting the label and going so far as to call the group, which translates to "Cartel of the Suns, as "non-existent".
"Venezuela categorically, firmly, and absolutely rejects the new and ridiculous fabrication by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of State, Marco Rubio, which designates the non-existent Cartel de los Soles as a terrorist organization," said Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yvan Gil on his Telegram account. Caracas is dismissing it as an 'absurd' lie.

Authored by Dave DeCamp via AntiWar.com,
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro made clear early this week that he'd be willing to hold "face-to-face" talks with US officials and warned President Trump against starting a war with his country.
"In the United States, whoever wants to talk with Venezuela will talk, face to face, without any problem," Maduro said on his weekly TV program, comments that came after Trump suggested that his administration "may" be holding talks with the Venezuelan government.

But Trump also told reporters on Monday that he wouldn't rule out sending troops into Venezuela, and the major US military buildup in the Caribbean continues. Maduro said that if Trump ordered military strikes on Venezuela, it would be the "biggest mistake of his life."
Maduro suggested that political factions within the US are trying to hurt Trump before the 2026 congressio...

Pentagon Briefs Trump On 'Military Options' Against Venezuela For 'Coming Days'
Probably this wasn't the first time, but there is widespread reporting on Thursday that military options have been formally presented to President Trump by top Pentagon officials for operations against Venezuela, including including strikes on land. Reports say these options are for the "coming days".
Meetings at the White House are being held now that the USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group arrived in Caribbean waters days ago. The largest-ever 'peacetime' American military build-up off Venezuela is currently underway, with some 15,000 US troops total in the region.
