Hugo “El Pollo” Carvajal, former head of military intelligence under the Chávez regime and now imprisoned in the United States for drug trafficking, has sent a direct letter to President Donald Trump in which he accuses Nicolás Maduro’s regime of carrying out for years a criminal operation aimed at flooding U.S. territory with drugs and exporting criminal gangs as part of a war strategy against American society.
In his testimony, Carvajal maintains that drug trafficking was not a marginal practice, but rather a State policy organized from the highest levels of Venezuelan power.
According to his account, the so-called Cartel of the Suns used air, sea, and land routes protected by the armed forces to send tons of cocaine to Central America, Mexico, and the United States, in alliance with armed groups and international terrorist structures.
The accusation takes on special seriousness due to the direct involvement of criminal gangs exported from Venezuela, among them the Tren de Aragua, now spread across several countries on the continent and with a growing presence in U.S. cities.
Carvajal claims that these organizations were used as instruments of destabilization, urban violence, and territorial control beyond Venezuela’s borders.
The former intelligence chief, who for years was part of the core of chavista power, is now cooperating with U.S. justice after pleading guilty to charges of narco-terrorism.
His letter seeks to warn of a threat that goes beyond the judicial sphere and directly enters the field of national security, as it involves a sustained attack on public health, social order, and the institutional stability of the United States.
These revelations reinforce the thesis that the Maduro regime is not only an internal dictatorship but a transnational criminal actor that has used drugs, organized crime, and forced migration as geopolitical weapons. The potential impact of this testimony could reactivate criminal proceedings, international sanctions, and new security measures in the region.
The political left in Spain, Hispanic America, and the United States is once again exposed by its complicit silence in the face of a regime accused of narco-terrorism. The social damage is already irreparable.
