USA attacked Venezuela over resources

According to the head of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the United States launched an attack on Venezuela to seize its strategic resources.

The Russian diplomat stated that the US employed all available military means during the operation, including aviation and cyber warfare, noting that the operation's goal is to control key gas and oil export routes.

International observers and governments of South American countries have confirmed that tensions in the region have increased in recent months, although there have been no official statements about a full-scale armed conflict yet.

This incident is another step in the ongoing confrontation between the West and Latin American states, where access to natural resources plays a key role.
