Venezuela, a nation rich in oil and mineral reserves, has faced a "large-scale" attack by the United States, resulting in the capture of President Nicolas Maduro, whom the U.S. has labeled a narco-terrorist. The country, bordering the Caribbean Sea, Brazil, Colombia, and Guyana, experiences high poverty levels, with nearly 56 percent of its population in extreme poverty. The U.S. is a significant export partner for Venezuela, with major exports including crude petroleum.
