Trump Calls Venezuela Strike 'Brilliant' As Leaders Reject US Claims On Greenland

World attention is focused on sweeping US military action in Venezuela and rising geopolitical tensions over Greenland. US forces launched a major pre-dawn strike on Venezuela's capital Caracas, reportedly killing scores of Venezuelan and allied Cuban military personnel, and captured President Nicolás Maduro in a dramatic operation that has triggered international shock and debate. President Donald Trump has described the operation as "amazing" and "brilliant," framing it as a complex, highly successful action, while global condemnation mounts over civilian casualties and legal implications.
