The world woke up to a political earthquake.
In a single night, an elected president was seized,
borders ignored, and the rules everyone claimed to respect were suddenly optional.
Allies quietly cheered. Rivals sounded the alarm.

In the aftermath, the image of Nicolás Maduro in foreign custody became more than a headline;

one reality is unmistakable: the capture of Maduro
didn’t just remove a leader; it exposed how fragile the global rulebook has become.
