We're Going to Run the Country': Trump Reveals US Plans To Govern Venezuela After Maduro Capture
"President Donald Trump held a press conference from his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida Saturday morning to update the American people about the regime change he fomented in Venezuela. Trump claimed the U.S. mission to bomb Caracas and abduct Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife was meant to stop the influx of drugs into the United States, while halting the theft of oil. Trump went on to say that the U.S. will take over the Venezuelan government until a proper replacement can be found."
"We're going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition, Trump said. So, we don't want to be involved with having somebody else get in and we have the same situation that we had for the last long period of years. So, we are going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition, and it has to be judicious because that's what we're all about."
President Donald Trump held a press conference at Mar-a-Lago to report on a U.S.-led regime change operation in Venezuela. He claimed the U.S. mission involved bombing Caracas and abducting Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife to stop drug flows into the United States and to halt oil theft. He stated that the United States would assume control of the Venezuelan government until a proper replacement could be installed. He said the U.S. would "run the country" until a safe, proper and judicious transition could occur. He framed the intervention as aiming for peace, liberty, and justice for Venezuelans, including expatriates who wish to return home.
