Eugenio Derbez celebrates surgical arrest of Nicolás Maduro in Caracas

Mexican comedian Eugenio Derbez expressed joy over Nicolás Maduro's arrest in Caracas by U.S. forces, describing it as a surgical operation that avoids war. Maduro faces narcoterrorism charges in a Brooklyn detention center, where he receives a standardized nutritional menu. Derbez hopes for justice and freedom in Venezuela.

Nicolás Maduro, president of Venezuela, was arrested in Caracas by the U.S. Army through an operation named 'Resolución absoluta', authorized by Donald Trump. The mission, carried out by Delta Force, was described as 'surgical' by Mexican actor Eugenio Derbez, who avoided delving into politics but celebrated the outcome. 'I'm very happy for the Venezuelans, the stories I heard were moving and I saw on social media how they celebrate, they're happy, so nothing, hopefully a promising future comes, of justice and above all freedom', Derbez stated on the program El Gordo y la Flaca.

Derbez praised the mission's intelligence: 'They did it in a very smart way, it's applauded, because we all sought to avoid a war and I think it was achieved, they did it surgically'. Maduro faces his first trial for narcoterrorism at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, known as the 'famous jail', where figures like Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán and Sean 'Diddy' Combs have been held.

At the center, inmates receive three daily meals with a menu designed by the Federal Bureau of Prisons to meet nutritional needs. Breakfast includes hot oatmeal, fruit, and skim milk; lunches and dinners offer options like roast beef, beef or chicken tacos, meat lasagna, and black bean burgers. Derbez noted he awaits Maduro's trial to hear his perspective, recalling his past criticisms of Trump, such as in 2017 when he called him 'a danger to Mexicans'. No contradictions are reported in the sources regarding the arrest or menu.
