What Donald Trump said about Maduro
US President Donald Trump has given conflicting messages about possible military intervention in Venezuela. On the one hand, Trump has dismissed the possibility of a US war against the Latin American country in the near future. On the other hand, he has said that Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro's days are coming to an end.
Trump said these things in an interview. The interview was broadcast at a time when the United States is strengthening its military presence in the Caribbean region. At the same time, it has attacked various ships, accusing them of drug trafficking. Quite a few people have been killed in these attacks. In the interview, Trump was asked if the US is going to start a war against Venezuela. He replied, "I don't think so.
" However, when Trump was asked if Maduro's time as president was coming to an end. Trump replied, "Yes, of course I think so." The US has accused Maduro, the president of oil-rich Venezuela, of drug trafficking. On the other hand, Maduro has accused the US of conspiring to change the government in Venezuela, using the fight against corruption as an excuse. The aim is to seize the country's oil resources.
In recent weeks, the United States has attacked at least 15 ships in the Caribbean and Pacific Oceans. At least 65 people have been killed in these attacks. The latest attack took place last Saturday. Several Latin American countries have criticised the attacks.
Experts say the attacks, which began last September and have targeted identified drug traffickers, amount to extrajudicial killings. Washington has so far not publicly provided any evidence to show whether the targets were actually involved in drug trafficking or posed a security threat to the United States.
