Merged Peace President invades Venezuela,/U.S. Forces Capture Maduro

Ukrainian propaganda is claiming that Maduro was protected by an outer ring of Russian mercenaries, and an inner ring of Cuban janissaries. That the Russians withdrew rather than confront the American raiders. That the Cubans stood their ground and were massacred. That the whole thing embarrasses Putin, and makes it clear Moscow never thought Venezuela was worth fighting for, and Maduro never worth defending.

I assume that was a typo, and you meant a UN embargo.
To be fair, I know it's an embargo by somebody with the power to enforce it. I assumed US, but if it was UN I don't know that it makes any real difference to what I was saying. Overall point being that Maduro was violating that embargo, got warned, then escalated through a couple of steps... and then because it's Trump it got dialed up to 11 and went all the way to extraordinary rendition.
