The US claims it’s cracking down on drug trafficking in Venezuela, yet just pardoned a convicted Honduran drug lord. 🇺🇸💊

According to Al Jazeera, historical patterns show the US has repeatedly used narcotics networks to advance foreign policy goals, from the 19th-century Opium Wars to CIA-backed operations in Laos, Afghanistan, and Nicaragua.

Cocaine entering the US overwhelmingly comes from Colombia, Peru, and Ecuador—not Venezuela. But political motives often shape enforcement actions more than evidence.

Former Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega worked with the CIA while enabling cartel shipments. Contra rebels in Nicaragua allegedly fueled the US crack epidemic. US soldiers have faced drug charges during anti-narcotics missions.

This isn’t a conspiracy. It’s documented history. 📜

World Exclusive: In a powerful interview with India Today’s Anjana Om Kashyap and Geeta Mohan, Russian President Vladimir Putin calls out Western double standards on energy.

Speaking from the Kremlin ahead of his visit to New Delhi for the 23rd India-Russia Annual Summit, Putin pointed out the hypocrisy: the U.S. keeps buying Russian nuclear fuel while pressuring India over oil imports.

His sharp remark? “America buys nuclear energy from us—and then they try to preach.”
