Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro’s trusted lieutenant, Diosdado Cabello, is rumored to be potentially working for former U.S. President Donald Trump. The speculation arises from Cabello’s recent visit to the United States, where he met with U.S. officials, including Trump, at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
Cabello, a powerful figure within Maduro’s government and the ruling socialist party, has been under U.S. sanctions since 2018 for alleged drug trafficking and corruption. Despite this, he has denied any wrongdoing and portrays the sanctions as a political attack orchestrated by the U.S. to undermine the Venezuelan government.
The meeting between Cabello and Trump has sparked various theories and interpretations. Some suggest that Cabello may be seeking to establish backchannel communications with the U.S. government to negotiate an easing of sanctions or explore potential diplomatic solutions to the ongoing crisis in Venezuela. Others speculate that Cabello could be trying to position himself favorably with the U.S. in case Maduro’s government collapses.
Both the Venezuelan and U.S. authorities have remained tight-lipped about the details of the meeting, leading to further speculation and uncertainty about its purpose and implications. The lack of official statements from either side has contributed to the mystery surrounding Cabello’s visit and its potential consequences for U.S.-Venezuela relations.
As the situation continues to unfold, observers are closely monitoring any developments that may shed light on the true nature of Cabello’s visit to the U.S. and the implications it might have for the already complex dynamics between the two countries.
