The corruption is thick; criminals and cocaine drug cartels cooperate and it's a big transit country for coke from neighboring Colombia. Most of the fentanyl comes from Mexico, so this will have little affect on the fentanyl trade to the US. If you look up cocaine deaths (~22k/yr) in the US, they're mostly cocaine mixed with fentanyl.

What matters is the USian oil companies are butt-hurt because Chavez nationalized their holdings, and the oil companies thought that the compensation Chavez offered was inadequate.
