About this listen

The Venezuela crisis has entered uncharted territory. The U.S. military intervention—including a coordinated operation that led to the capture of Nicolás Maduro and his transfer to the United States—have triggered global debate over sovereignty, regime change, and international law.

In this special episode of Caribbean Tea, hosts Vivian Williams, Denis Chabrol, and Kendol Morgan examine the alleged Venezuela invasion, the unsealed Southern District of New York indictment, and the growing controversy over whether a sitting head of state can be prosecuted in foreign courts. With Venezuela’s vast oil and natural resources at stake, the question many are asking is: who governs Venezuela now—and who benefits?

🎙 Featuring:

  • Dr. Mark Kirton, Caribbean diplomat and international relations scholar

  • Donald Ramotar, former President of Guyana

  • Gary Griffith, former Commissioner of Police of Trinidad & Tobago

🔎 This episode explores:

  • The legality of U.S. foreign policy actions involving military extraction

  • Head of state immunity and precedent under international law

  • The role of the United Nations and global reactions to intervention

  • Regional implications for Caribbean security and Latin America

  • How Venezuela’s oil shapes geopolitics, sanctions, and power

With condemnation from world leaders, debate within the United States, and uncertainty on the ground, this episode delivers a deep geopolitics podcast discussion on power, legality, and consequence. If you follow global news analysis, international affairs, or the evolving dynamics of U.S.–Venezuela relations, this conversation is essential listening.
