US-Venezuela: Maduro Faces Court
Lyse Doucet, a veteran BBC correspondent, is joined by Caitríona Perry, chief presenter, and Vanessa Busch-Schluter, Latin America editor. They discuss Nicolás Maduro's courtroom appearance in New York on narco-terrorism charges, his claim of being a 'decent man,' and the political theatre surrounding the event. The panel dives into the implications of U.S. actions, including the potential influence on Venezuelan leadership and the complexities of international reactions, all while contrasting it with U.S. interests in Greenland.
