On Saturday at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, U.S. President Donald Trump unveiled fresh details on his administration’s latest actions against Venezuela following overnight U.S. strikes.
Trump said he’s ready to allow U.S. oil companies to enter Venezuela to fix infrastructure “and start making money for the country,” and claimed that the U.S. retains all military options until its demands are fully met. 🚀
In a surprising announcement, Trump said Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife were captured during an overnight operation. He even shared a photo on Truth Social showing Maduro aboard the USS Iwo Jima. 🇻🇪➡️🇺🇸
“We’re going to run the country until such time as we can ensure a safe, proper, and judicious transition,” the president declared, hinting at a U.S.-led interim administration in Caracas. 🤝
Analysts say this marks the sharpest escalation in U.S.-Venezuela relations in years. With oil revenues and regional stability hanging in the balance, all eyes are on how Venezuela’s military and its allies will respond. Stay tuned for updates! 🌍
