An internal investigation in the United States found that a group of special forces made a bet for $409 thousand to overthrow Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.<\/p>\n

CBS News investigation<\/h2>\n

CBS News<\/strong><\/em> 24 April said.<\/a> about an internal investigation into a bet between US military personnel. It is about the rate for $409 thousand<\/strong> on the possible overthrow of the Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro<\/strong> in 2020.<\/p>\n

The information was confirmed by sources in the Pentagon. According to journalists, the bet was made by former and current members of special forces.<\/p>\n

Details of the bet<\/h2>\n

The bet was placed in 2020, when the situation in Venezuela remained tense and the US supported the opposition. The bet concerned whether Maduro would remain in power for a year.<\/p>\n

The bettors are US military personnel who served in special forces. It is known that the investigation against them is ongoing.<\/p>\n

Pentagon's reaction<\/h2>\n

The Pentagon confirmed that the incident is being investigated as a possible breach of military ethics. No official comment has been made on possible disciplinary measures.<\/p>\n

The statement emphasised that such behaviour does not meet the standards of service in the US Armed Forces.<\/p>\n

Context of the situation in Venezuela<\/h2>\n

In 2020, a political crisis continued in Venezuela. The United States and a number of other countries recognised opposition leader Juana Guaido<\/strong>, calling for a change of government.<\/p>\n

President Nicolas Maduro remained in office despite international pressure and sanctions.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
