Venezuela will remain under US control following the arrest of NicolΓ‘s Maduro. That was Donald Trump's message during a press conference held at his Mar-a-Lago compound after US forces launched an offensive against various military targets in Venezuela early Saturday morning. The operation culminated in Maduro's capture.
In the briefing, Trump stressed that his administration will not allow someone “that does not have the good of the Venezuelan people in mind” to take control of the country. “We have had decades of that. We are not going to let that happen,” he said. “We are going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper, and judicious transition.”
Trump explained that the leadership of Venezuela will be in the hands of high-ranking US officials, including secretary of state Marco Rubio and secretary of defense Pete Hegseth.
At the same time, MarΓa Corina Machado, considered the main leader of the opposition to Maduro and Hugo ChΓ‘vez and recent winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, issued a statement in which she said that opposition party figure Edmundo GonzΓ‘lez Urrutia must immediately assume the presidency of the country.
