Venezuela’s Primero Justicia party has voiced support for a US military operation that resulted in the death of Wálter “Niño Guerrero,” a prominent gang leader. Guerrero controlled strategic areas within Venezuela, and his elimination is seen by the party as a step towards neutralizing criminal organizations operating in the country. Primero Justicia is simultaneously calling for the restoration of public institutions to permanently dismantle these mafias. The party believes strengthening state authority is crucial for long-term security. Details surrounding the US operation remain limited, but the incident highlights the ongoing struggle against organized crime in Venezuela. This event underscores the complex relationship between Venezuelan political actors and external security efforts. The party’s endorsement signals a willingness to collaborate, or at least not obstruct, US involvement in combating criminal elements.
