US President Donald Trump has issued fresh threats against Colombia, Cuba and Mexico following Washington’s controversial seizure of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro. Speaking aboard Air Force One, Trump lashed out at Colombian President Gustavo Petro, warned that Cuba was close to collapse, and reiterated that the United States is “in charge” of Venezuela.

Trump also revived interventionist rhetoric under his so-called “Don-roe Doctrine,” signalling an aggressive expansion of US influence across the Western Hemisphere.
