America says that the Venezuelan government was becoming a threat to international security and conspiracies were being hatched from there against America. Trump alleges that Venezuela has become a major route for smuggling of dangerous drugs like cocaine and fentanyl into America. He says that to end this problem it is necessary to remove Maduro from power. Trump has also alleged that because of Maduro’s policies, millions of Venezuelans had to leave their country and flee to America. He claimed that criminals were sent to America from prisons and mental hospitals in Venezuela. Apart from this, Trump has also talked many times about America’s rights over Greenland.

China’s government media made fun of

Amidst all these incidents, China’s government media has taken a dig at Trump’s policies and decisions. China’s government media has shared a video on social media, in which Trump’s decisions have been mocked. It is written along with the video, ‘I do whatever I want.’ In this video, the issue of Greenland has also been raised and international law has also been made fun of in a sarcastic manner. This video from China is being seen as a sarcasm on Trump’s aggressive foreign policy and unilateral decisions.

Trump said this about Greenland

US President Donald Trump says that America will have to take control of Greenland to prevent Russia and China from occupying Greenland. Trump said that any country should own its things, just renting it does not work. According to him, only if Greenland belongs to America, it can be properly protected. He also said that America will do this work either in an easy way or in a difficult way.

There is tremendous turmoil these days in the relations between America and Latin America. After the US military action in Venezuela and the arrest of President Nicolas Maduro, there is an atmosphere of tension in the entire region. Meanwhile, Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro has openly come out against America and President Donald Trump. Petro’s sharp statements have not only shocked Washington, but have also intensified political debate throughout Latin America.

At a time when Colombia has come to the center of global politics, many questions are arising in the minds of people about this country. What is the population of Colombia? Which religion is most followed here? Is the number of Muslim community here more or less and what effect does this diversity have on the politics and society of the country? So let us know which religion is dominant and how many Muslims are there in Colombia, which is eyeing America and Trump.

What is the total population of Colombia?

The total population of Colombia is between 4.6 to 4.9 crores. It is one of the largest countries in Latin America. People of different religions, cultures and communities live here, but from the religious point of view this country looks largely the same.

Which religion has the most dominance in Colombia?

Christianity has the greatest influence in Colombia. About 64 percent people here are Roman Catholic. Apart from this, about 17 percent of the people are Protestant Christians, that is, overall a large population of Colombia believes in Christianity. Churches, religious festivals and Christian traditions are an important part of everyday life here. However, thinking is changing in Colombia with time. About 14 percent people here do not believe in any religion.

How many Muslims are there in Colombia?

The total Muslim population in Colombia is considered to be around 10,000. This is only 0.02 percent of the total population of the country, that is, the Muslim community here is very small in terms of numbers. Colombia’s Muslims mostly live in the Caribbean coast areas. Islamic centers are present in areas such as Bogotá, Santa Marta, Guajira, Nariño and San Andrés. There are also mosques, Islamic organizations and some schools here. The Omar Ibn Al-Khattab Mosque located in Macau city is counted among the largest mosques of the entire continent.

status of other religions

There are also some other small religious communities in Colombia. For example, Jews number about 5,500, mostly in Bogotá, Buddhists number around 9,000, and Bahá’ís number about 60,000. Indigenous communities follow their traditional and ancestral religions. Some people believe in a mixture of African traditional beliefs with Catholicism. Apart from this, there are also a very small number of people who believe in Taoism and other beliefs.

The silver market is currently at a major turning point. US’s strictness on Venezuela, Trump’s foreign policy and increasing geo-political tension in South America are directly affecting the silver supply. The Demand-Supply Gap has reached historic levels and prices have increased by nearly 160% in the last one year. According to reports, on the night of December 24, about 800 tons of gold and silver were sent from Venezuela to Russia and China in 11 special planes. China, which is the world’s largest silver refining country, is playing an important role in this shortage. The premium of up to 80% between Paper Silver and Physical Silver in Dubai and New York shows market fear. Mexico, Peru, Argentina and Chile form a major part of global silver production, so if the situation worsens, prices can go up to $100 per ounce, which will also affect India’s silver prices.

Venezuela Crisis: There is a stir in American politics regarding American military action in Venezuela. While Republican leaders are saying that President Donald Trump’s decision is correct, the Democratic Party says that this step has been taken without any clear plan and without asking Parliament.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other senior government officials informed Congress leaders late Monday night about the military action taken in Venezuela. This meeting took place at a time when questions are being raised that Trump did not consult lawmakers and it is not clear how America will handle Venezuela in the future.

Republican leaders supported

According to APTN report, in this closed meeting held in the Capitol, most of the Republican leaders supported Trump’s decision. He justified the action of removing Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro from power. Many Democrat MPs came out after the meeting with more questions.

Meanwhile, the Trump administration has deployed US Navy ships near the Venezuelan coast. Also, American companies are being asked to reinvest in Venezuela’s weak oil industry. A proposal to ban the use of US military in Venezuela without the approval of Congress will be presented for voting in the US Senate this week.

Chuck Schumer raised questions

Earlier on Monday, Senate Democratic Party leader Chuck Schumer said that no one regrets what happened to Nicolas Maduro. But he accused the Trump government of not having any clear plan as to what to do next regarding Venezuela.

Chuck Schumer said, ‘All day Sunday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio was busy managing Trump’s mistakes. Even after this, the President again said that America will run Venezuela for some time. They don’t have any plan. They are just taking steps in the chaos.

There is a sharp reaction at the international level regarding the US military action in Venezuela and the arrest of President Nicolas Maduro. An emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) was called on Monday on this issue, where questions were raised on America’s actions and deep differences between many countries were clearly visible. The situation created after the American action was discussed in detail in the emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council.

United Nations chief expressed concern
United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres expressed deep concern over the Venezuela crisis. He said that in the case of US military intervention and arrest of President Maduro, the UN Charter and international law should be respected. Guterres raised questions about what example such military action would set for international relations.

Strong opposition from Russia, demand for Maduro’s release
Russia strongly criticized America’s action in the United Nations. The Russian representative called it a violation of international law and demanded the immediate release of President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores. Russia said that such a violation of the sovereignty of any country cannot be accepted.

Cuba, Mexico and Chile also raised questions
Apart from Russia, Cuba and Mexico also strongly condemned America’s move. These countries say that use of military force can worsen the situation. Chile also termed the American action as a wrong example and said that it will harm the global system.

Venezuela’s allegation – keeping an eye on oil and resources
Venezuela alleged in the United Nations that America had carried out this attack with the aim of acquiring the country’s natural resources and huge oil reserves. Venezuela called it direct aggression and an attack on sovereignty.

Support of America’s allies
On the other hand, America’s allies like Argentina, Britain and Latvia justified the American action. These countries say that this step was a necessary action against the Maduro government.

Maduro arrested in US attack
The US Army took action early Saturday and arrested President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores. Both have been brought to New York, where Maduro is facing trial in drug trafficking cases. However, Maduro has vehemently rejected all the allegations against him.

Global discussions are intensifying regarding political and geo-economic changes in Venezuela. According to reports and the Global Trade Research Initiative, if the balance of power there changes and US sanctions are eased, the overall impact on India may be limited, as the current trade between the two countries is very low. However, in the period 2000–2010, India used to import crude oil from Venezuela on a large scale. ONGC Videsh, IOC and Oil India had also invested in Orinoco Belt, but after 2019 this business almost stopped due to US sanctions. In today’s situation, Reliance Industries can get the most benefit. The Jamnagar refinery can process heavier Venezuelan crude, which is cheaper. Margins and profits can increase if imports become easier, signs of which are visible in the market.

Venezuela’s politics and America’s military action have shaken the world. President Nicolas Maduro, arrested by American soldiers, is now kept in America’s most controversial and scary prison in New York. Maduro’s stay in this prison, infamous for violence, overcrowding, darkness and fear, is raising many questions whether it is just imprisonment or is it also a big message in world politics? Let us find out why it is called America’s most scary and infamous prison.

Maduro’s arrest and bringing to America

President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores have been arrested in the US military action on Venezuela. Maduro was handcuffed when he got off the plane at Stewart Air National Guard Base in New York on Saturday. His first video surfaced, in which he was seen smilingly walking into the facility with two DEA officers. Maduro walked into the hall saying ‘Good night, Happy New Year’ to his colleagues.

American officials had detained Maduro from the military base in Caracas. After reaching New York, his next destination is the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC).

Why is the Metropolitan Detention Center infamous?

The MDC Metropolitan Detention Center is a federal prison in New York, which was built in the 1990s to reduce overcrowding. This prison is infamous for its filth, lack of staff, violence against prisoners and long power cuts. Many high-profile prisoners have lived here, like singer R. Kelly, Martin Scherli, Jeffrey Epstein’s associate socialite Ghislaine Maxwell and drug cartel leader Ismael ‘El Mayo’ Zambada Garcia, among others.

violence and poor conditions

Violence among prisoners is common in the MDC. Reports suggest that a prisoner was stabbed to death here in June 2024. A month later, another prisoner died in a fight. Earlier in 2019, prisoners were trapped in severe cold and darkness due to power cut for a week. After this, the Justice Department investigated and gave a settlement of 10 million dollars to 1600 affected prisoners.

Such conditions of prisoners have made MDC one of the scariest prisons in the world. This prison can prove to be a mental and physical challenge for Maduro.

Maduro’s legal status

Maduro will be presented in federal court in New York, where charges of drug trafficking and financial crimes could be brought against him. According to American media, this step is part of America’s strict policy and an effort to send a message at the international level.

After the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, the inside story of US military action is now coming to light. America named this mission Operation Absolute-Resolve (OAR), which was carried out in a very confidential manner. This operation started on Friday night and was completed by early Saturday morning. The US Army, Delta Force, CIA, Navy and FBI worked together in this entire mission.

Operation started in the dark of night
According to local time, America started the operation around 2 am on Friday night and Saturday morning. First of all, air strikes were carried out on many Venezuelan targets, so that the country’s air defense system could be weakened. Its purpose was that Delta Force helicopters could reach Maduro without any hindrance.

Fuerte Tiuna became the center of operations
Fuerte Tiuna, a large military base in Caracas, was the main target of this operation. American intelligence agencies had received information that Nicholas Maduro was present here. After the air strikes, US Special Forces entered the area and Maduro was taken into custody from his compound.

Complete mission in 2 hours 28 minutes
According to local time, at 2:01 am, American Delta Force had reached Maduro’s hideout. After this, Maduro was taken to the beach in just 2 hours and 28 minutes. At 4:29 am, Delta Force completed the operation and left the area.

Maduro taken out of the country on USS Iwo Jima
The American warship USS Iwo Jima was already deployed about 100 miles away from the Venezuelan coast. At around 11 am in the morning, Maduro was taken out of Venezuela through this warship. Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores were first taken to the Guantanamo naval base. A special Boeing 757 government plane of FBI was already ready there. Both of them were brought to New York by this plane. After landing at New York’s Stewart Airport, Maduro was taken straight to the DEA headquarters. After this, both were shifted to Brooklyn Detention Center by helicopter and then by car.

Big role of CIA, internal network ready
The role of CIA was very important in this operation. The CIA had prepared its sources within the Venezuelan government and among people close to Maduro. Through these sources, Maduro’s every activity was being monitored – where he goes, whom he meets, where he stays and where he sleeps.

Maduro’s security and routine monitored
The CIA had also completely studied Maduro’s security system. At what time, how much security is there, who are the most trusted guards and where Maduro goes in case of danger – all these things were collected. Stealth drones were also used to monitor Maduro.

CIA officers were present on the ground since August
According to American media reports, senior CIA officials were present in Venezuela since August. He was continuously working on Maduro’s daily habits and movements i.e. ‘pattern of life’. As soon as the correct location was confirmed, the operation was given the green signal.

Maduro under control in five minutes
It is being told that American Delta Force captured Maduro in just five minutes. Maduro and his wife were trying to run towards a safe house after seeing American soldiers, but they did not get a chance to escape. American media claims that Delta Force had properly rehearsed this mission a month in advance, so that there was no mistake in the operation.

Trump watched the operation live from Florida
When this entire operation was going on, US President Donald Trump was present in Florida. From there he was keeping an eye on the entire mission through live feed. The US Defense Minister and CIA Director were also present with him. This operation is considered to be one of America’s most high-profile foreign military actions ever.

Amid increasing tension with America, several explosions were heard in Caracas, the capital of Venezuela. According to the information, the US Army carried out an air strike in Caracas, after which several explosions were heard throughout the city. After the air strike by the US Army, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife have been captured by America and both are currently in America’s custody.

After the attacks by America, Venezuela also came into discussion because Venezuela has the largest oil reserves in the world, yet it is among the poorest countries. In such a situation, let us now tell you why Venezuela is so poor despite having the world’s largest oil reserves.

The world’s largest oil reserves, yet the situation is bad65558/

According to Al Jazeera report, Venezuela has the world’s largest proven oil reserves. By 2023, Venezuela had about 303 billion barrels of oil. Despite this, Venezuela earns very little from the export of crude oil and is counted among the poor countries of the world. After Venezuela, Saudi Arabia is at second place with 267.2 barrels, followed by Iran with 208.6 barrels and Canada at third place with 163.6 barrels. These four countries together own more than half of the global oil reserves. If compared with America, America has about 55 billion barrels of oil reserves, whereas Venezuela’s reserves are five times more. Despite this, Venezuela is far behind America in oil income. A major reason for this is considered to be international restrictions and limited production.

Why is Venezuelan oil sold at low prices?

Most of Venezuela’s oil reserves are in the Orinoco Belt, where heavy and high density crude oil is found. This type of oil is expensive to extract and process. It also contains high amount of sulfur, due to which this oil is sold at a low price in the international market. The country’s state oil company PDVSA has the entire responsibility of oil production, but due to old infrastructure, lack of investment, mismanagement and international sanctions, Venezuela is not able to take full advantage of its huge oil reserves.
