Trump says US will 'run' Venezuela until 'proper and judicious transition' takes place: Video

US President Donald Trump has said Washington intends to remain directly involved in Venezuela’s governance following the capture of Nicolás Maduro, arguing that continued US oversight is necessary to guarantee what he described as a “safe and orderly” political transition. Speaking about the situation, Trump framed the move as a temporary measure aimed at preventing further instability and avoiding the emergence of another leadership that, in his view, would fail to represent the interests of the Venezuelan population. He stressed that the objective is to secure peace, liberty and justice, including for Venezuelans living abroad who hope to return to their country once conditions allow.
