On Saturday 3 January US President Donald Trump announced a large-scale US strike on Venezuela – and stated that the US had also captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
US Attorney General Pamela Bondi later posted on X that Maduro and his wife had been charged with drugs-related offences and would ‘face the full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts. At a press conference later on Saturday, President Trump said the US was ‘going to run the country’ until a transition could be safely arranged.
Here is early, provisional, analysis from Chatham House experts, who will monitor developments over the weekend with updates, additions and further commentary to follow.
