Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro issued a defiant warning during a rally in Caracas, rejecting U.S. congressional discussions on Venezuela’s military activity in the Caribbean and denouncing the domestic opposition for supporting what he called the threat of foreign intervention. Maduro declared that Venezuela’s sovereignty would not be dictated by Washington, accusing opposition figures of relying on “dirty dollars” from abroad and of encouraging U.S. sanctions—including actions affecting Venezuelans under Temporary Protected Status. He vowed that Venezuela would resist any external interference through what he described as a unified “popular, military and police” front.
