Maduro’s secret military wish list revealed: Venezuela turns to Russia, China as Trump signals action
Published on Nov 02, 2025 09:11 AM IST
Amid rising U.S. military activity in the Caribbean, Venezuela has reportedly appealed to Russia, China, and Iran for urgent military support. Internal U.S. documents allegedly reveal President Nicolás Maduro’s letters to Presidents Putin and Xi Jinping, seeking radars, drones, and aircraft repairs as Washington increases pressure. The Kremlin acknowledged its readiness to “respond appropriately” to partner requests, while Chinese cooperation talks also intensified. A sanctioned Russian Ilyushin Il-76 aircraft was tracked landing in Caracas, fueling speculation of arms transfers. Reports indicate Venezuela is coordinating with Tehran to acquire long-range drones and detection equipment. Meanwhile, the U.S. has deployed warships, including the USS Gerald Ford and F-35 fighter jets, for live-fire drills near Venezuelan waters. Trump administration officials have described the moves as part of operations targeting “narco-terrorist” groups, but analysts warn the buildup signals preparation for possible military action against Caracas.
