"The UAE is planning to establish an Israeli military basethat can accommodate more than 800 Israeli soldiers in the Arada area, UAE, near the border with Saudi Arabia,"

Ajel, Saudi state-owned media.

She is 6 years older than Maduro. He was just a bus driver with no formal education, while she is a lawyer, one of the country's most prominent attorneys.

Cilia Flores gave Maduro not only a career but also a sentence. Who really ruled Venezuela?

Maduro's wife, Cilia Flores, was captured along with her husband in a stunning overnight operation by U.S. forces at their home in Caracas early Saturday morning.

She will be tried alongside Maduro for narco-terrorism and also faces the death penalty.

Many online commentators have suggested that Flores was merely a hostage to the situation her husband found himself in. But is that really the case?

In fact, Venezuelans knew Flores long before she became First Lady, and many even call her the shadow ruler of Venezuela, wielding immense influence over the dictator.

She is 6 years older than Maduro. He was just a bus driver with no formal education, while she is a lawyer, one of the country's most prominent attorneys.

They met in the early 1990s, when Hugo Chávez was imprisoned for a failed coup attempt. Flores led the legal team that secured Chávez's release, and she succeeded.

At that time, she already had a husband and three children, while Maduro had only one son, nicknamed "the prince."

Cilia Flores, a prominent lawyer and Chávez's key ally, was once described by Maduro as having a "fiery personality."

Chávez kept her one step behind in her career so that she would always remain close to Maduro. He rose to head the National Assembly, then she did. In 2013, Chávez made Maduro his successor, and in the same year, Flores became his official wife.

Moreover, members of her family have already been convicted of drug trafficking. In 2015, two of Flores' nephews were trying to sell 800 kg of cocaine. They were taken to the U.S., convicted in New York in 2016, and sentenced to 18 years each.

However, in October 2022, President Biden granted them clemency, and they were swapped for 7 wrongfully detained Americans held in Venezuela.

There's a saying that behind every successful man is a woman equally successful, who made his career. But in the case of Cilia Flores, it seems she not only built Maduro's career, but may have sealed his criminal fate as well.
