The Venezuelan interim president has launched the search for possible traitors while ensuring submission to Washington

There are various less mainstream publication implicating him. Hard to judge the accuracy since mainstream outlet are all involved with western intelligence operations.

It has since emerged that the incident, never officially clarified, was related to the arrest of General Marcano. Reports from Colombian intelligence — an effective source of information on events in the neighboring country and accessed by the Colombian press — indicate that Marcano is accused of facilitating the kidnapping of Maduro. His involvement consisted of providing the United States with the exact coordinates of where Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores were sleeping, and identifying blind spots in the Cuban-Venezuelan security ring protecting them. According to these reports, he was the man infiltrated by Washington, and they add that encrypted communications between the general and foreign intelligence agencies were detected weeks before January 3.

    There is nothing confirmed from any Venezuelan channel.

    Also, the closest theory regarding Maduro’s kidnapping is this one which was presented by CubaDebate Media Observatory-> https://lemmygrad.ml/post/10418664

    In that website, they also explain the psyop part which is the one that you are currently facing through this pro-imperialist media, elpais:

    Control of the narrative was contested with the same priority as control of the territory. A “second layer” based on disinformation and recycled audiovisual material was observed. There was evidence of synthetic or deepfake content and structured campaigns.

    Reports describe the debate as being “contaminated” with contradictory narratives. These tactics aimed to amplify versions favorable to the U.S. military. The objective was to erode trust and hinder the attribution of sources.

    Washington has doctrinal frameworks for foreign influence operations (MISO/PSYOP and identity management) . This suggests the activation of these units before, during, and after January 3rd in Venezuela.

    MISO ( Military Information Support Operations ) and PSYOP ( Psychological Operations ) are terms for military operations that seek to influence the emotions, motives, and behavior of foreign audiences through messages, propaganda, and information actions . MISO is the more recent term that sometimes replaces PSYOP to soften connotations, although both terms are used for activities such as distributing leaflets, using social media, or direct communications to support military and political objectives.
