A 'Beautiful' World, Crafted by Trump

The article focuses on the American intervention in Venezuela and condemns the abduction of Nicolás Maduro as a violation of international law. The author argues that the US, under Trump's leadership, has taken on a global policing role, imposing rules arbitrarily and ignoring violations by its allies, such as Turkey and Israel. It is pointed out that popular acceptance of such an act does not legitimize it, drawing a parallel with the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. The author cites the views of former Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias and lawyer Achilleas Aemilianides, who condemn the US action as a war crime and the collapse of international institutions. Finally, it is emphasized that the intervention is motivated by oil and that Trump seeks to impose American influence in Latin America, creating a dangerous precedent for future interventions.
