The United States government has doubled the reward for information leading to the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to $50 million, marking the highest bounty ever offered by the U.S. This announcement was made by U.S. Attorney General Pamela Bondi, who accused Maduro of collaborating with foreign terrorist organizations and drug cartels to traffic cocaine into the United States. The U.S. Department of Justice has also seized over $700 million in assets linked to Maduro's regime, including jets and multiple properties. This reward surpasses those previously offered for notorious figures such as Osama Bin Laden. The Trump administration emphasized the unprecedented scale of this bounty as part of its counter-terrorism strategy. The Venezuelan government, including officials like Foreign Minister Yvan Gil and Attorney General Tarek William Saab, has condemned the reward as illegal, grotesque, and an act of political interference. Vice President Delcy Rodríguez and the Venezuelan National Assembly have criticized the U.S. move, describing it as an attempt to criminalize Maduro and incite violence. The Cuban chapter of the International Antifascist organization also rejected the U.S. decision. Maduro himself dismissed the reward increase, denouncing it as imperialist propaganda and reaffirming his stance against U.S. actions. The Venezuelan regime has called on the United Nations to issue a statement regarding the U.S. announcement. Meanwhile, Maduro has sought to strengthen alliances with Colombia amid the escalating tensions. The U.S. reward and asset seizures reflect a heightened effort to target Maduro's government amid ongoing accusations of drug trafficking and terrorism.
