"There’s no way they [US troops] can enter Venezuela."

"I don't think the USA is going to invade Venezuela."

The Trump administration "has shown no signs so far of clear intent for direct military action."

"No one in their right mind thinks that with 4,500 people you can invade a country that's got mountains, jungle and multiple urban centers."

"It appears as if Mr. Peace President is looking into invading Venezuela under the pretext that the whole country is an illegal drug cartel and Maduro is a fugitive and an illegitimate president."

"It is my belief the United States will invade and Occupy Venezuela by Jan 2026."

Will the US Invade Venezuela?

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro stated in a pre-recorded interview aired on state television that Venezuela is open to negotiating an agreement with the United States to combat drug trafficking and is ready for U.S. oil investment.

The U.S. military has conducted at least 35 strikes on suspected drug-smuggling boats since September, resulting in at least 115 deaths according to numbers announced by the Trump administration, with Venezuelans among the victims.

Maduro described his November 12 conversation with Trump as cordial and respectful, but noted that developments since then have not been pleasant, while reiterating his belief that the U.S. seeks regime change to access Venezuela's oil reserves.

International law experts and rights groups have questioned the legality of the U.S. operations, suggesting the strikes may amount to extrajudicial killings, though the Trump administration has provided no public evidence linking targeted boats to drug trafficking.
