On January 3, US special forces carried out a raid on Venezuela's capital Caracas, seizing President Nicolas Maduro and his wife. US President Donald Trump later said that the United States would "run" the country, leaving Venezuela in a state of uncertainty over its political and economic future. This week, FRANCE 24's media show Scoop looks at just some of the media coverage and asks Venezuelan writer Vicente Ulive what role it had in shaping events.
