U.S. Senator Rick Scott has proposed increasing the bounty for the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro to $100 million, calling him a dangerous adversary to the United States. This comes as the U.S. government has recently announced a $25 million reward for Maduro's arrest, equating him with some of the world's worst terrorists. The U.S. has also begun distributing wanted posters for Maduro and Diosdado Cabello, another prominent figure in the Venezuelan regime. Reports indicate that these posters have been vandalized in Oslo, according to the Maduro government.
