Pars Today – As Donald Trump has stepped up U.S. military pressure on Venezuela, congressional Republicans have become deeply divided over whether this approach should lead to the overthrow of Nicolás Maduro’s government.

According to The Hill, Republican lawmakers hold differing views on intensifying the Trump administration’s military pressure on Venezuela, particularly regarding the possibility of expanding military operations to remove Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. The report noted that while many Senate Republicans support aggressive targeting of speedboats suspected of drug trafficking in regional waters, some warn that a direct attack on the Maduro government—such as ground operations or the deployment of U.S. troops—could prove extremely costly and dangerous. / IRIB News Agency
