Recently leaked documents shed light on an alleged illicit operation conducted by the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in Venezuela to build a drug-trafficking case, according to reports from The Associated Press.
The espionage operation coincided with broader US efforts to bring about regime change in Venezuela, as planning began within weeks of the 2018 presidential election that saw Maduro re-elected to a six-year term in Venezuela.
In March 2020, then-US Attorney General William Barr unsealed an indictment against Maduro, alongside 14 other current and former officials, accusing the Venezuelan leader of conspiring with Colombia’s FARC rebels to “flood the United States with cocaine” as far back as 1999. The Venezuelan president fervently rejected the US accusations, while US officials did not publicly provide evidence.
