President Trump has declared a shift in the U.S. approach to combating Venezuelan drug cartels, moving operations from maritime to land-based strategies. This announcement comes in the wake of a recent U.S. military strike on an alleged drug boat off the coast of Venezuela, which resulted in casualties. The decision to focus on land operations suggests a significant change in tactics, potentially aimed at disrupting drug trafficking networks more effectively. Analysts believe this could lead to increased military presence and operations in Venezuela, raising questions about the implications for U.S.-Venezuela relations and regional security.
