Donald Trump.

After the US military action on Venezuela, US President Trump said in the press conference that only America will run Venezuela. What we did, no one else in the world can do. Trump also said that President Nicolas Maduro and his wife will now face the US Justice Department. He said that we will run the country until we have a safe, fair and sensible transfer of power.

Trump said at a press conference in Mar-a-Lago, where he claimed that this highly successful operation will serve as a warning to anyone who wants to threaten American sovereignty or endanger the lives of American citizens.

America will govern Venezuela

Trump said the US plans to govern Venezuela until the transfer of power. He claimed that the US presence was already established, although there were no immediate signs that the US was operating the country.

Threat to Venezuelan leaders and army

Trump said, the most important thing is that the embargo on all Venezuelan oil is in full force. All Venezuelan political and military officials must understand that what happened to Maduro can happen to them, and if they do not treat their people justly, fairly and equally, the same will happen to them. Dictator and terrorist Maduro has finally withdrawn from Venezuela. People are free now.
