"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?

Jorge Rodríguez, president of Venezuela's National Assembly and brother of interim President Delcy Rodríguez, announced on January 8 that the government would release a significant number of Venezuelan and foreign political prisoners as a gesture to consolidate peace.

The announcement came five days after a U.S. military operation on January 3 resulted in the capture of former President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores, who were taken to New York to face federal drug trafficking charges.

The White House credited President Trump with securing the prisoners' freedom, with Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly stating this demonstrated how the president uses maximum leverage. Trump indicated he would meet opposition leader María Corina Machado in Washington the following week.
