The US seized Venezuelan President Maduro's private plane worth 13 million dollars.

The US seized Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro's private plane worth $13 million. This incident further escalated the tense relations between the two countries.

The plane was seized by US officials while it was in the Dominican Republic. Officials claimed that the plane violated US sanctions and was acquired through illegal means. The seized Dassault Falcon 900 aircraft was taken to Florida.

A US official said that this action sends a message that "no one is above the law." The incident occurred during a period when the US was investigating corruption allegations in the Venezuelan government.

This development is part of the long-standing pressure by the US against the Maduro regime. The US argues that there is no evidence that Maduro won the recent elections fairly and continues to impose sanctions on the country.

The political and economic crisis in Venezuela has led millions of people to flee the country. This situation has become an important issue in US politics, particularly affecting the immigration crisis at the US-Mexico border.

US officials claim that the Maduro regime uses the country's resources for personal gain. One official criticized the situation, saying, "While people in Venezuela cannot afford bread, the president travels with a luxury jet."
