Struggling Venezuelans focus on day-to-day survival as defiant Maduro talks up war with U.S.

As tensions rise with ongoing U.S. Navy strikes in the Caribbean, Venezuelans remain primarily concerned with their day-to-day survival rather than the prospect of war. This sentiment is echoed in President Trump's recent discussions about military actions in Venezuela, indicating a complex situation where the local populace is more affected by internal strife than external threats. Maduro's defiance in the face of U.S. relations further complicates the landscape, as citizens grapple with the immediate impacts of economic hardship and violence, overshadowing the looming military concerns.
