Circle of Survival: A Mother’s Stand on the African Savanna

Image
  From above, it looks like a perfect circle drawn into the golden dust of the savanna. But this is no work of art. It is a moment of tension shaped by instinct, survival, and the fierce bond between a mother and her young. Six lions move in formation. Among them, a heavy-maned male stands out, his presence a symbol of strength and leadership. Together, they form a tightening wall of patience and hunger around a mother elephant and her calf. The air is thick with dust, stirred by cautious movement. Time seems to slow, as if the land itself is holding its breath. Every step the lions take is deliberate. They are not reckless hunters rushing forward. They are strategists, reading body language, testing resolve, waiting for weakness. Hunger pushes them closer, but experience teaches them caution.

United States President Donald Trump has triggered widespread international reactions following comments suggesting that the US would take control of Venezuela and its oil reserves if a military operation were to successfully remove President Nicolás Maduro from power. Speaking during a recent political appearance, President Trump asserted that the United States possesses the military capability to swiftly topple the Venezuelan government if it chose to do so. He further claimed that such an action would result in Washington assuming administrative control of the country, including oversight of its vast energy resources. According to Trump, Venezuela’s oil wealth, which remains largely untapped due to years of economic decline, would be better managed under US leadership. According to energy analysts, Venezuela holds the largest proven crude oil reserves in the world, yet production has plummeted due to sanctions, mismanagement, and infrastructure decay. Trump argued that US interventi...
