The Trump Administration Increased Pressure On Venezuelan Dictator Nicolás Maduro, Accused Of Involvement With Drug Cartels And Terrorist Groups. Now, The U.S. Is Offering One Of The Largest Rewards Ever Recorded For The Capture Of A Foreign Leader.

The administration of former President Donald Trump announced on Thursday (8) that it has doubled the reward for the capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro. Now, those who provide information leading to Maduro’s arrest could receive up to US$ 50 million.

Attorney General Pam Bondi stated that Maduro works with international criminal organizations, such as the Tren de Aragua, the Sinaloa cartel, and the Cartel of the Suns. According to her, these groups bring lethal drugs and violence to the United States.

According to Bondi, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has already seized 30 tons of cocaine linked to the Venezuelan regime.

History Of Accusations And Progressive Increase In Reward

In March 2020, the Southern District of New York filed several charges against Maduro, including narcoterrorism, conspiracy to import cocaine, and possession of war weapons.

At that time, the initial reward offered by the Trump administration was US$ 15 million.

During President Joe Biden’s term, the State Department increased the amount to US$ 25 million in January.

Now, Trump’s team has decided to double that amount.

Seizures And Promise Of Justice

According to the Department of Justice, the U.S. has already seized over US$ 700 million in assets linked to Maduro.

Among them are two private jets and nine vehicles. Nevertheless, the Trump administration accuses the Venezuelan leader of continuing to command a “reign of terror.”

“Most importantly, under President Trump’s leadership, Maduro will be held accountable for his crimes,” Bondi stated.

Seizures And Promise Of Justice

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

China opens the world’s first school where more than 100 humanoid robots from different brands will study together, each movement will be repeated up to 600 times a day and the data will feed a collective brain that will teach all the robots of the future.

Cambodia has started digging a nearly 180-kilometer canal to connect the Mekong River directly to the sea and reduce its dependence on the ports of neighboring Vietnam.

Scientists considered detonating 213 nuclear bombs in the Sahara to create an artificial sea the size of El Salvador, with each explosion being a hundred times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, and the goal was to generate more energy than Egypt’s largest hydroelectric plant.

Brazil’s almost forgotten neighbor found oil at sea, attracted ExxonMobil and Chevron, became a billion-dollar bet in global energy, and now tries to answer if quick wealth also turns into real development.

Scientists simulate nuclear fireball in the laboratory and discover a surprise in the radioactive fallout by observing how cesium, uranium, and cerium change when they remain at high temperatures for a longer time.

Dissatisfied with seeing people sleeping on the street, a man named Ryan Donais started building small mobile homes so that homeless people can escape the cold, each equipped with a bed, running water, electricity, and heating.

Lightning vote in the Senate suspends rule on legal abortion in children, raises alarm at Conanda, and leads organizations to prepare a battle in the Supreme Federal Court against Congress’s decision.

The Earth’s magnetic pole has decided to “take a trip” towards Russia, getting closer and closer to Siberia, and forcing scientists to update the model used by GPS, airplanes, ships, and military systems worldwide.
