🖊🗞OPINION | The Next Wars Were Always Here: How Post 9/11 Law and the Monroe Doctrine Converged in the Caribbean

With Washington ramping up military threats against Venezuela, Michelle Ellner looks at how the US establishment laid the groundwork for new wars.

Relatives and maritime workers disputed Washington’s narrative about the US strikes near Venezuela, stating the men killed were unarmed workers and not linked to organized armed groups.

Reporting also revealed a classified OLC memo that frames the operations as part of a “non-international armed conflict,” a rationale lawmakers say lacks legal basis and expands presidential war powers without congressional authorization.

📰 NEWS | Venezuela Condemns US Tanker Seizure as ‘International Piracy’ as a Potential Oil Blockade Looms

Venezuela denounced the US seizure of the “Skipper” oil tanker as “international piracy” after US forces boarded the vessel carrying 1.8 million barrels of crude loaded at the José terminal. The operation, which involved Coast Guard, Marines, and special forces, occurred without resistance. Cuba also condemned the action as a violation of international law.

The seizure comes as Washington expands its military presence in the Caribbean and weighs a naval blockade. US lawmakers questioned the administration’s shifting justification, citing contradictions between counter-narcotics claims and the targeting of an oil shipment.

🗒️🗣️ INTERVIEW | Puerto Rico, US Imperialism and Venezuela’s Defiant Sovereignty: A Conversation with Déborah Berman Santana

From within a US colony, Puerto Rican geographer and activist Déborah Berman Santana argues in the latest VA interview that Washington’s “new” strategy closely resembles the old one.

The United States’ latest National Security Strategy refocuses on the Western Hemisphere, reaffirming claims to dominance over Latin America and the Caribbean. In Berman Santana’s assessment, the document openly restates a historic objective: hemispheric control, with Venezuela at the center due to its insistence on sovereignty and control over its resources.

She explains that Puerto Rico’s status as an unincorporated US territory enables this strategy in practice. With six US military bases on the island and a recent increase in air and naval activity, including the takeover of former civilian facilities, the United States can deploy forces across the Caribbean without consultation, using military pressure to influence Venezuela and signal limits on regional sovereignty.

🚨📰 BREAKING | Venezuela Condemns Trump’s Blockade as Illegal, Popular Organizations Vow Resistance

The Venezuelan government condemned US President Donald Trump’s threat of a naval blockade on Venezuelan oil tankers, calling it a violation of international law and national sovereignty. Caracas said it will denounce the US at the United Nations, citing the UN Charter’s prohibition on the use or threat of force.

The Wall Street Journal reported disruptions to Venezuela’s oil traffic following the blockade threat and the seizure of a tanker, while US lawmakers from both parties warned the move could constitute an act of war. Congress is expected to vote on War Powers resolutions aimed at blocking further escalation.

📰 NEWS | US Congress Venezuela War Powers Resolution Defeated as Trump Claims to ‘Want Oil Back’

The US House of Representatives narrowly rejected a War Powers resolution aimed at preventing unauthorized military action against Venezuela, 213–211. A second resolution to limit US strikes on vessels accused of drug trafficking was also defeated.

The votes come amid the largest US military deployment in the Caribbean in decades, reported strikes on boats since September, and renewed threats from President Trump, including a proposed naval blockade and statements that the US “wants the oil back.”

The Venezuelan government condemned the escalation as a violation of international law, while China and Russia issued statements opposing Washington’s actions and calling for restraint.

🗒️🗣️ INTERVIEW | Solidarity with Venezuela in the Belly of the Beast: A Conversation with Elizabeth Blaney

Organized opposition to US aggression against Venezuela is growing inside the United States, particularly among working-class and immigrant communities. In the latest VA interview, Los Angeles tenant organizer Elizabeth Blaney explains that communities facing ICE raids, Medicaid cuts, and housing insecurity see a direct connection between repression at home and war abroad.

Blaney also discusses the recent People’s Assembly for Peace and Sovereignty in Caracas, attended by 600–800 delegates despite major travel obstacles. Participants linked sanctions and military escalation against Venezuela to global consequences, including rising housing costs, energy insecurity, and the diversion of public resources away from social needs.

📰 NEWS | Trump Issues Venezuela Regime Change Threats as US Steps Up Naval Blockade

In a Mar-a-Lago press conference, the US president answered "probably" when asked if Washington's ultimate goal in Venezuela is regime change before warning President Maduro to not "play tough."

US authorities have stepped up their naval blockade in an effort to strangle Venezuelan oil efforts. A second tanker was seized by the Coast Guard last weekend, but a third refused to be boarded and headed back to the Atlantic.
