Seven weeks after a U.S. military operation on January 3 captured former President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, killing 32 Cubans, interim President Delcy Rodríguez has dismissed Cuban advisers from key roles, turning to Venezuelan bodyguards only. This shift follows U.S. pressure, including blocked oil shipments to Cuba, and aligns with economic reforms like a new oil law granting America oversight of sales, which has funneled $1 billion in revenue. A recent poll shows 72% of Venezuelans feeling optimistic about the country's direction under Rodríguez, though opposition voices question her support and highlight fears of U.S. coercion amid calls for elections.

Key Takeaway

With Maduro in U.S. custody, Venezuela's interim leader ordered Cuban security teams out of her guard and intelligence units—a sharp break from years of close reliance on Havana's elite protection.

The Gunners lead the Premier League with 58 points from 27 games, yet a late collapse in the 2-2 draw highlighted fatigue in Zubimendi (2,265 minutes) and Timber (2,182 minutes), who top outfield minutes.

Arteta insisted the players look great and selections follow condition data, but fans called it stubborn amid a packed schedule including Sunday's North London derby at Tottenham.

Key Takeaway

Arsenal blew a two-goal lead at Wolves, leaving fans worried about overworked stars Martin Zubimendi and Jurrien Timber running on empty.
