A new survey found that nearly nine out of ten Venezuelans describe Nicolás Maduro's government as a narco-terrorist organization, reflecting widespread public discontent and deep mistrust toward the country's leadership.
The study, conducted by DC Consultores, polled 1,003 Venezuelans across the country and found that 86.76% of respondents characterized Maduro's regime as a narco-terrorist structure, a perception reinforced by years of alleged links between high-ranking officials and drug trafficking operations. For most respondents, the U.S. government's previous designation of Venezuela as a "narco-state" merely confirmed what they already believed.
