      Like I said, my understanding of South American politics is limited.

      While Wikipedia can be prone to bias of course, it seems Maduro has been described as an autocrat and the UN has put Venezuela on human rights watchlists, and Venezuelans have fled the country for reasons similar to what the US seems to be aiming to achieve in the past three months.

      Arguably it can be considered evil to force those kidnapped back into the same country they tried to flee instead of freeing them and offering them asylum, but here we are.
