Makana 360 Daily Report – November 11, 2025
📌 Trump’s Deal with South Korea Stalls over Submarine Details
Two weeks after U.S. President Donald Trump and South Korean President Lee Jae Myung announced they had resolved long-standing negotiations over tariffs and security issues, no formal agreement has been released. The delay centers on South Korea’s request for U.S. approval to build a nuclear-powered submarine. Although Washington agreed to Seoul’s use of nuclear fuel, finalizing the factsheet has been delayed due to ongoing U.S. departmental revisions. Meanwhile, the South Korean won fell by 0.7%, hitting a seven-month low.
📌 Iraq Votes in Election Expected to Bring Little Reform
Iraqis began voting on Tuesday to elect a new 329-member parliament. Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani is seeking a second term, though the youth-dominated electorate increasingly views the process as a means for political elites to divide Iraq’s oil wealth. Sudani’s bloc is expected to win the most seats but fall short of a majority, leading to months of negotiations among Shiite, Sunni, and Kurdish parties. Voter turnout is projected to drop below the 2021 record low of 41% due to widespread disillusionment and a boycott by Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr.
📌 Venezuela Prepares Guerrilla Response to Possible U.S. Attack
Venezuela is reportedly preparing for potential U.S. air or ground strikes by deploying outdated Russian-made weaponry and planning guerrilla-style resistance operations. Facing shortages in personnel and equipment, the government has stationed small military units across 280 locations for sabotage missions. Another strategy, called “anarchization,” involves intelligence services and armed loyalists sowing chaos in Caracas to make the country ungovernable. President Nicolás Maduro dismissed U.S. threats but admitted Venezuela’s army is not equipped to confront one of the world’s most powerful militaries.
