概要

 CIA Director John Ratcliffe recently traveled to Caracas, Venezuela, on January 19, 2026, at the direction of President Donald Trump. According to Newsroom Panama, he held a two-hour meeting with Venezuelas interim leader Delcy Rodriguez to discuss cooperation between the United States and Venezuela. The talks focused on intelligence sharing, economic stability, and ensuring Venezuela stops serving as a safe haven for Americas adversaries, especially narco-traffickers like the Tren de Aragua gang. A U.S. official described the meeting as an effort to build trust after the U.S. military captured former President Nicolas Maduro and brought him to the United States for trial on drug charges.

This visit came amid turmoil in Venezuela. Venezuelan officials reported dozens of deaths during the U.S. operation, including soldiers and Cuban personnel. Rodriguez, who was vice president under Maduro, now leads on an interim basis. Trump spoke with her by phone the day before Ratcliffes trip, with both calling the call positive, as noted by Newsroom Panama. Meanwhile, opposition leader Maria Corina Machado met Trump in Washington, handing him her Nobel Peace Prize medal, though he has not endorsed her to replace Maduro.

On the domestic front, Ratcliffe ordered a review of past CIA actions, as reported by The Daily Signal. The probe found that former CIA Director John Brennan rushed evidence in a 2016 assessment claiming Russia sought to help Trump win the election. Ratcliffe highlighted issues like restricted access to key reports and media leaks creating bias. Lawfare Media notes this fuels ongoing debates about deep state abuses, with declassifications questioning the original intelligence community findings.

Ratcliffes moves signal a push for accountability in intelligence operations and stronger ties with key nations. These developments underscore his active role in Trumps foreign and domestic agendas.
