Maduro's Arrest Sparks Global Debate

Maduro's Arrest Sparks Global Debate

The U.S. arrested Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on 3 January 2026.

The U.S. says it's because Maduro was involved in bad things like drug trafficking.

But many countries think the U.S. shouldn't have done this because it's against the rules of international law.

Some countries, like Russia and China, are very upset and want Maduro to be freed.

The U.S. says it will help Venezuela until a new leader is chosen.

India is being careful and says everyone should talk and make sure people are safe.

This event is making people worry about what kind of world we live in and if big countries can just do what they want.
