Many of these trials were paralyzed during Joe Biden’s administration, when it chose not to pursue the most sensitive cases against chavismo leaders, in parallel with attempts at political negotiation.
With the objective of causing a political crisis in the Caribbean regime, Trump applies a legal and naval lock to suffocate the illegal sale of narcotics that redict millions of profits in favor of the military and civilian partners of the Venezuelan dictator
