A heated exchange broke out between singer Karina (“La Voz”) and Venezuelan actor Fernando Carrillo during a live broadcast of the program Pica y se extiende on Telemundo, where both expressed completely opposing views on the capture of Nicolás Maduro and his wife by the U.S. government.
The debate began when Carrillo openly defended the Venezuelan regime, surprising those present.
The actor claimed the country had been the victim of external manipulation over the past several years.
“I believe that, sadly, everything that has happened to Venezuela over the last 20 years has been induced, because the masks have now come off,” he said.

Karina, for her part, reiterated that Carrillo risks nothing with his statements due to his lack of media presence and diminished professional relevance. The exchange continued to generate tension until the program moved on to other topics.
