In this episode of The Source, our founder and supporting editor Zain Raza speaks with Prof. Jeffrey Sachs, world-renowned economist and UN advisor, about the recent U.S. strikes on Venezuela and President Trump’s claim that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife have been captured. The conversation explores the political and geopolitical implications of the escalation, the international response — particularly from Europe — and what these developments reveal about the current state of international law and global power dynamics.
