Protests erupted across the United States this week as demonstrators demanded an end to military operations in Latin America, particularly opposing recent strikes on Venezuela's capital, Caracas. Crowds gathered outside the White House and in major cities, holding signs reading 'No War' and chanting slogans of solidarity with Venezuela.
Organizers criticized the Trump administration's timing, alleging the intervention aims to divert attention from domestic challenges like economic instability and healthcare reforms. 'This isn't about democracy—it's about controlling oil,' stated one protester in Washington, echoing widespread suspicions about resource-driven motives.
The demonstrations highlight growing public skepticism toward overseas military engagements, with participants urging diplomatic solutions. Analysts note the protests coincide with heightened tensions in Latin America, where regional leaders have called for emergency UN talks to address the crisis.
