The main goal of the US administration's pressure campaign against Venezuela is to force President Nicolas Maduro to resign.
Modern.az reports that CNN television channel has disseminated information regarding this, citing sources close to the government.
According to sources, Washington's strategy is built on “forcing Maduro to resign, and, if necessary, using credible threats of military force.”
The US leadership believes that in this way, the political transition process in Venezuela can be accelerated.
The Donald Trump administration aims to overthrow Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and is considering both economic and military pressure mechanisms. US military activity in the Caribbean Sea has increased in recent months, and although operations against drug cartels in the region are cited as the official reason, observers do not rule out that this has a political objective.
