According to President Trump, Maduro will be transported to the United States to face drug‑related charges. He further stated that the United States will administer the affairs of Venezuela until what he called “a peaceful handover” can be arranged.
The President also accused the Venezuelan government of unlawfully seizing American‑owned companies operating in the country.
