CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (WARTIME)
At the beginning, middle and end of wartime.
Allegations against Maduro: Key Details Regarding the Allegations:
Cartel de los Soles: The U.S. government alleges that Maduro leads the "Cartel de los Soles" (Cartel of the Suns), a drug-trafficking organization composed of high-ranking Venezuelan officials and military officers.
Specific Charges: In March 2020, he was indicted on charges including narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy, and weapons charges related to the use of machine guns.
Alleged Activities: Prosecutors allege that Maduro leveraged his positions in the Venezuelan government—first as foreign minister and later as president—to facilitate the transport of large quantities of cocaine from Venezuela to the United States. This included coordinating with the FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) to send cocaine into the U.S.
Family and Associate Involvement: The indictments also name other top Venezuelan officials, including Diosdado Cabello and former intelligence chief Hugo Carvajal. In 2017, two of Maduro's nephews were convicted in the U.S. for attempting to smuggle cocaine.
Response: Maduro has vehemently denied these accusations, calling them "dirty, false accusations" and claiming that the U.S. is using the "war on drugs" as a pretext to oust him and seize control of Venezuela's oil reserves.
