This episode breaks down Marco Rubio’s recent appearance before the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee to explain Washington’s strategy toward Venezuela after the capture of Nicolás Maduro. Rubio defended the administration’s approach, saying the goal is a long-term transition to democracy and even cited Spain’s democratic transition as an example to follow. He clarified that the U.S. does not currently plan new military action, though the option isn’t entirely off the table if cooperation fails, and stressed the complexity of stabilizing Venezuela’s political future amid ongoing diplomatic and economic efforts.
