Trump is really messing with the drug trade in Venezuela, and it's definitely hitting the cash flow to UK banks and the London property scene. The way things are going, it looks like Trump is squeezing profit margins for banks and real estate in the UK. The relationship between the UK and the US is clearly taking a hit since Trump is doing stuff that's not great for a lot of rich folks. Plus, the way his team took control of the LIBOR system in London during his time in office is worth mentioning. Looking ahead, it seems pretty clear that 2026 could be a year where people won’t need masks anymore and a lot will come to light. The smart wealthy ones might lose a few million here and there, but they’re aware of what’s happening and might try to pull out to salvage their reputations and dodge any potential legal issues.

Nothing new about it everybody knows uk is place where corrupted money goes. Off while world dark business was booming banks of uk used their fractionar reserve power to create money and loans. Now uk financial situation not good elite knows so only thing for them is just save themselfes. Off course british people want wealth and average person dont care source of funds they rather be happy if dark markets working instead of economic recression. If usa dont let uk to earn from dark things....well there is plan B thats war but not war just but full attack over russia to take resources land and govetment Regards uk financial system and maduro: info Gold Reserves Battle: The London High Court has ruled against Maduro's efforts to gain control of over $1 billion of Venezuela's gold reserves stored in the Bank of England, instead recognizing the authority of opposition leader Juan Guaidó. [6] Maduro's legal team stated he wished to sell the gold to finance Venezuela's pandemic response, while Guaidó's opposition alleged it was intended to pay off foreign allies. [6] This legal battle highlights the significant financial assets Venezuela holds abroad and the ongoing disputes over their control. While the provided content does not directly name specific London properties owned by Maduro or his cousins, it strongly indicates that London has been a significant destination for wealth accumulated by Venezuelan elites, including those with close ties to the government, through mechanisms like property investment and financial services that facilitated capital flight and money laundering.

Stealing oil tankers and bombing fishing boats isn’t the most effective way to combat drug trafficking. If Trump wanted to fight against the drug trade in South America, there would be greater focus on Ecuador, where their President’s family businesses have been caught smuggling drugs multiple times and collaborating with international criminal organizations. Since Ecuador is a close United States ally, those incidents are dismissed as “container contamination”. As long as you are useful to Trump and the US you are allowed to traffic drugs and launder the proceeds. This has been proven time and time again.

Trump is not fighting a drug war in Venezuela. He wants to install a US puppet so that Venezuela's natural resources will be accessed without restrictions. UNODC’s World Drug Report, the Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA), and the DEA’s National Drug Threat Assessment all show that Venezuela is not a major transit point for the cocaine that enters the US. If the US is fighting a drug war, why did Trump pardon Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, whose record showed that he flooded the US with drugs? It's all politics and business.

The things that trump is doing is not to target people that are wealthy. Trump is also a billionaire and he will not want to spoil that status. Rich people are also a major part of the economy of a country and many of them are very smart so they will always look for ways to avoid tax and other things that will not give them profit. If the government is making bad decisions that is affecting the economy it is poor people that it will affect more.

If I remember correctly, the New York Federal Court sentenced him to 45 years in prison and fined him $8 million. Accordingly, at the same time, the US Department of Justice also announced that Juan Orlando Hernández had transported more than 400 tons of cocaine into the United States from 2004 to 2022. But ironically, Donald Trump pardoned him while simultaneously accusing the government of Nicolás Maduro Moros of being a "drug state." Even a 3-year-old would quickly realize this is just a pretext for Trump to interfere in Venezuelan politics. There is no war on drugs going on,it's all just a cheap cover to legitimize political interference and resource exploitation.

You mean the fishermen who were killed in terrorist attacks Trump carried out against their fishing boats. That has nothing to do with "drug operations". Not to mention according to any intel you can find, including what the spymasters in US say themselves, there are no drug operations in Venezuela. The drug operations and their cash flow (specifically their money laundering) is performed by the CIA and mostly go through US banks not UK. That goes from cocaine labs in South America all the way to opium farms in Afghanistan. Also keep in mind that fake-war with drug cartels has always been good for business since it increases drug prices and consequently the CIA's income. That's the recession that has hit everyone everywhere due to all these international wars including Trump's tariff war. The US regime has never had any good relations with anyone because they see others either as clients or enemies. There is no third category.
