Opinion: Trump can pressure Putin by going behind his global friends while Putin is stuck in an endless war, Trump is knocking on the doors of Russia's allies one by one from here. Here's something that perhaps many people won't consider: the real target is not Maduro... it's Putin. Trump's pressure on Venezuela is not just about cartels or headlines. It's about showing the world that Russia cannot protect its allies. Syria has flipped, Iran is silent, and now Venezuela appears unstable as Russian planes come and go as if they are preparing an escape plan. A Fox News stated all of this, then Trump shared it. If Trump disagrees with this, what would that mean? Hit Putin where it hurts by pulling out his backup crew. No need for a tank, just pressure, presence, and dismantling Putin's weak connections. While it is true that Trump may have his own reasons for wanting to get rid of Maduro that have nothing to do with Putin, it is undeniable that a long game can be played here. The question is, how will this unfold?
