The United States is a permanent member of the UN Security Council, so it can veto anything.  This means it could only be suspended if it chose to suspend itself (or if it threatens to shut down the board).

What did Trump really achieve by kidnapping Maduro — lol?! The US would need boots on the ground to secure all the oil and continue stealing it (for Israel?). That would mean guerrilla warfare like Vietnam. Lots of people are boasting about how great the American military is when it hasn't really been tested in a real confrontation. We know what happened in Vietnam. I also see people posting that Latin Americans should infiltrate the US and start destroying infrastructure. It could get messy fast.

All I know is that Trump ran on a platform of no more wars and no meddling in the affairs of others, while fixing the situation at home. The drug claim is complete BS. It's similar to the WMD lie. Trump is Israel's bitch and will do whatever his masters tell him to do. He is a complete fraud.

Trump is the one who appears unhinged. He must be really scared of his Israeli overlords. America looks like a bunch of thieves, and it will blow up. Nobody likes America in the rest of the world.

I wanted Trump to make America great again. But not by stealing the resources of poor nations. You don't go rob someone who's poor. That's a total dick move, and he's picking on weaker opponents.

Yeah, but Trump isn't likely to be taken out by Colombia.

Except for most Venezuelans it would be a dream to be part of the US and to live a similar quality of life!

Yeah but will Trump let thousands of "refugees" flood into the USA ?
maybe a select few will be allowed but his hard line policies on immigration is well known, i agree with him about Mexicans & Muslims though.
I think the Venezuela incident ( good or bad ) could end up costing the US Taxpayer dearly.
must have thought carefully though weighing it up ...well hopefully he did. :)

Venezuela has one of the largest oil reserves in the world, and with investment and modernisation in its oil industry is capable of producing far more than it currently does.

Nice photo op. Is it even a recent photo? Get a few people to raise their arms? Has the lot of millions of Venezuelans improved? We don't know that yet. Time will tell.

Yes, it is a recent photo, one of many in that linked article alone.  Venezuelans in Venezuela and all over the world are celebrating Maduro's capture and praising Trump:

It currently produces one-fourth of what it produced 20 years ago.  Figures are out there and easy to find.  They can add all that back and more for a small investment.  It's lunacy not to make this happen.  This action was good for the US and hurts China, Russia, Iran, Cuba, Columbia, Mexico, etc.  Very very smart.

Donald Trump has again proposed annexing Greenland, after Denmark's leader urged him to "stop the threats" over the island.

Speaking to reporters, the US president said "we need Greenland from the standpoint of national security".

Trump has repeatedly raised the prospect of the semi-autonomous Danish territory becoming an annexed part of the US, citing its strategic location for defence purposes and mineral wealth.

Greenland's Prime Minister Jens Frederik Nielsen responded by saying "that's enough now" and described the notion of US control over the island as a "fantasy".
