Increased geopolitical uncertainty may raise energy prices, insurance costs for Caribbean shipping, and reduce tourism demand in the region. Venezuelan consumers face continued economic hardship amid military spending priorities and potential international sanctions escalation.
Potential for expanded US sanctions on Venezuela, increased military spending by regional governments, possible intervention by international bodies (UN, OAS), and pressure on neighboring countries to take diplomatic or security positions.
