The U.S. intervention in Venezuela is framed as a modern application of the Monroe Doctrine to block foreign colonialism and ensure regional stability. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and President Trump emphasized that the move is driven by national interests, specifically energy security and the removal of adversaries like Iran and Hezbollah from the Western Hemisphere. Critics question the "America First" alignment of running a foreign nation, while proponents argue it secures vital resources.

### BBC Analysis, Trump Regime Change in Venezuela

The BBC analyzes Donald Trump's pressure campaign against Nicolas Maduro as a pursuit of regime change. Despite Trump's "America First" rhetoric regarding foreign wars, he appears to view Latin America as a "backyard" where the U.S. has a right to intervene. This policy is linked to a modern interpretation of the Monroe Doctrine and a desire to eliminate far-left influence in the Western Hemisphere.

The U.S. military has ramped up pressure on Venezuela through "Operation Southern Spear," involving Marine training exercises in Trinidad and Tobago. While the operation is publicly framed as a drug interdiction effort, the underlying conflict involves a 200-year-old territorial dispute over the oil-rich Essequibo region of Guyana. Venezuela claims sovereignty over the area, where ExxonMobil recently discovered massive offshore oil reserves, leading to U.S. plans for a potential military base to protect energy interests.
