The Iranian regime’s expansion beyond its borders extends far beyond the Middle East. Over the past 25 years, Iran has cultivated a robust alliance with Venezuela, spanning 7,000 miles (ca. 11,265 km).
This strategic partnership involves substantial investments and loans, valued at tens of billions of dollars, as Iran provides Venezuela with oil, gas, cars, and weaponry capable of directly impacting the United States.
In the intricate web of Iran’s association with Venezuela, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and Hezbollah, acting as their proxy military in southern Lebanon, exploit the South American drug trade to launder money, fueling their global terror apparatus.
