‘Architect of the Worst Humanitarian Disasters’: X user slams Zohran Mamdani for condemning capture of Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro

Donald Trump announced the capture of Nicolas Maduro, the President of Venezuela, and his wife in a dramatic operation on January 3, 2026. The move was met with global condemnation, including from New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani. Mamdani criticized the operation, arguing that it violated international law and would negatively impact New Yorkers, many of whom are Venezuelan immigrants. However, Venezuelans celebrated Maduro's capture, expressing gratitude for the end of his 12-year rule marked by corruption and unrest.
