Trump Administration Shifts Focus to Venezuela Amid Potential Raúl Castro Indictment

The U.S. Justice Department is preparing to indict former Cuban President Raúl Castro, prompting Washington to consider a legal and diplomatic playbook previously used against Venezuela. This shift signals a potential expansion of American legal reach into Latin American authoritarian regimes and could destabilize regional political structures. The move underscores the administration's continued commitment to holding historical figures accountable for human rights abuses despite the passage of decades.
