The US military escorts Maduro to sell oil, while Europe stays silent? These 3 details reveal the rift between the US and Europe
Theme: Sovereignty disputes under the geopolitical rivalry between the US and Europe
Text: The most shocking geopolitical drama of the 2026 new year, the US military secretly raided Caracas at night, arresting Venezuelan President Maduro and his wife, transporting them to New York for trial, then immediately planning to sell Venezuelan oil for profit. Even more dramatic is that, facing this blatant cross-border intervention, the major European powers collectively remained silent—Germany only spoke of 'orderly transition,' France avoided commenting on US actions, while only Spain dared to directly condemn it as a violation of international law.
#But behind the silence lies nothing but calculations: Europe relies on US defense and dares not stir up more troubles beyond the Ukraine issue; however, Trump immediately set his sights on Greenland’s rare earth mines, bluntly stating he would take "unconventional control," forcing Germany, France, the UK, and five other countries to quickly issue a joint statement to "protect the island." On one side are Venezuela’s "peripheral interests," and on the other are Greenland’s "core resources." Europe’s double standards expose just how fragile its底线 of compromise with the US truly is.
What’s most thought-provoking is: when major powers can arbitrarily break the rule of "non-interference in internal affairs," who will guarantee the security of small countries with no voice? Let’s discuss in the comments—do you think the rift between the US and Europe will continue to grow?
US Troops Escort Maduro to Sell Oil, Europe Remains Silent? 3 Details Exposing the US-Europe Rift
Theme: Sovereignty Disputes Amid US-Europe Geopolitical Game
The most shocking geopolitical drama of 2026 kicked off with US troops launching a midnight raid on Caracas, escorting Venezuelan President Maduro and his wife to New York for trial, and then immediately planning to profit from selling Venezuela’s oil. What’s more dramatic is that in the face of this blatant cross-border intervention, major European powers have collectively "fallen silent" — Germany only talked about an "orderly transition", France avoided commenting on the US move, and only Spain dared to directly condemn it as a "violation of international law".
But behind this silence lies nothing but calculations: Europe relies on US defense and dares not stir up more troubles beyond the Ukraine issue. However, Trump immediately set his sights on Greenland’s rare earth mines, stating bluntly that he would take "unconventional control" measures, forcing seven countries including Germany, France and the UK to quickly issue a joint statement to "defend the island." On one side are Venezuela’s "peripheral interests", and on the other are Greenland’s "core resources." Europe’s double standards have exposed how fragile the bottom line of its compromise with the US really is.
The most thought-provoking question is: When major powers can arbitrarily break the rule of "non-interference in internal affairs," who will guarantee the security of small countries with no right to speak? Let’s talk in the comments section. Do you think the rift between the US and Europe will continue to widen?#美国CPI数据即将公布 #Globalnew ws #Geopolitics #Breaking #WriteToEarn
