Remember, Venezuela has some good amount of oil, gold and minerals 

Anyway jokes a side, it appears the US or Donald Trump do not like Nicolás Maduro (the Venezuelan president) and have been accusing him of Narco-trafficking and not following democratic processes. In fact, I think at one point they even put a $15M bounty on his head and slapped some serious sanctions. How crazy is that? Imagine a country putting a bounty on the head of another active president just because they don't like him or want to force him out? Sounds like the kind of thing the US and CIA would do when they want to make a regime change and install a puppet leader, right?

The Narco-trafficking allegations seems so far-fetched and are probably one of the excuses Trump is using to launch a war against Nicolás Maduro and force a regime change. Alternatively, the US is eyeing those softer oil, gold and other mineral deals that are so rich in Venezuela.
