US Venezuela Strike: Low Public Approval, High Intervention Fears

  • Only one-third of Americans approve of the US military strike in Venezuela that led to President Nicolas Maduro's capture.
  • A significant 72% of Americans fear the US will become overly involved in the South American nation.
  • Support for the strike is largely partisan: 65% of Republicans back it, compared to 11% of Democrats and 23% of independents.
  • The Reuters/Ipsos poll also shows 43% of Republicans favor US dominance in the Western Hemisphere.
  • President Donald Trump's approval rating rose to 42%, its highest since October, following the operation.
