💨 Abstract

Nicolás Maduro appeared in a U.S. court, pleading not guilty to narco-terrorism and cocaine charges. The key legal question is whether he can claim head-of-state immunity. Maduro's lawyer plans to challenge the U.S. military's alleged "abduction" of Maduro and his wife. The U.S. argues Maduro is not the legitimate president of Venezuela, while Venezuela's attorney general disputes U.S. jurisdiction and asserts Maduro's immunity.
