In a video released on January 16, 2026, Machado credited Trump's pressure campaign for the liberation of Venezuela. While her supporters cheer the alliance, critics argue it politicizes a prize meant for humanitarian achievement. Meanwhile, Cuba has reportedly received the remains of its soldiers killed during the operation to capture Maduro, marking a somber moment for the Caribbean nation.

The world's focus isn't just on the Americas. In the Middle East, killings in Gaza persist despite the announcement of Phase 2 of a ceasefire.

Halfway across the globe, South Korea's former president has been found guilty in a landmark martial law case. It's a significant moment for Asian democracy, proving that even the most powerful aren't above the law.
