Mass Demonstration For Release Of President Maduro, Cilia Flores

This Tuesday, February 3, the Venezuelan capital, Caracas, was the scene of a massive demonstration of citizens demanding the return of the Constitutional president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, and the first lady, Cilia Flores, abducted by US imperialism exactly one month ago. The protest brought together workers, students, and social movements near the La Previsora ​​building in Plaza Venezuela.

We’re Being Lied To On A Massive Scale About Events In Venezuela

On January 3, the Trump administration authorized a large-scale military invasion in Venezuela that killed one hundred people. The US bombed infrastructure in and around Caracas, and in other states, and kidnapped President Nicolas Maduro and First Combatant (aka First Lady) Cilia Flores. Outright lies are being reported in the corporate media on a massive scale to justify crimes committed by the US military and to mislead the public. Clearing the FOG speaks with activist and policy analyst Leonardo Flores. Flores addresses many of the common myths and provides the facts you need to understand that President Maduro is still the President of Venezuela, that the US-backed far-right opposition led by Maria Corinna Machado has little power within Venezuela, that the Venezuelan government and the Bolivarian Revolution remain strong and united and that gains claimed by the Trump administration are exaggerated. He also discusses what people in the US are doing to mobilize in support of President Maduro and First Lady Flores.

They condemned the United States for using pretexts to invade Venezuela, ultimately aiming to seize its natural resources, including oil and mineral wealth.

Who Is Nicolás Maduro And Why Washington Kidnapped Him

On Jan. 3, 2026, the Trump administration carried out one of the most open acts of imperialist aggression in the recent history of Latin America. U.S. forces invaded Venezuela and kidnapped its democratically elected president, Nicolás Maduro, along with Cilia Flores. This was not a covert operation or a proxy maneuver. It was a direct assault on Venezuelan sovereignty, carried out openly and justified after the fact through executive fiat and imperialist bravado. The target was not simply an individual president, but the right of an oppressed nation to determine its own political and economic path.
