The capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro marks a dramatic escalation in international affairs. The move has been widely criti cised for undermining na tional sovereignty and violat ing international law. The US plan to redirect Venezuelan crude into American markets also raises serious ethical and diplomatic concerns. True stability in Venezuela must arise from self-determina tion, transparent legal processes and cooperative diplomacy rather than coercive power plays.
