“I saw it as if I were watching a television program”: Trump details the attack on Venezuela

The US President, Donald Trump, boasted this Saturday about the attack against Venezuela perpetrated on the night of this Saturday, assuring that there is no other country on Earth that can carry out such a maneuver. “I would say there was quite a bit of activity. Everything was very dark, especially in Venezuela. The team did an incredible job. They rehearsed and practiced like nobody ever had before,” the president recounted in his conversation with Fox News.

“And they told me, real military people told me, that there is no other country on Earth that could carry out such a maneuver. If you had seen what happened, I literally saw it as if I were watching a television program,” he assessed, adding that it was “an incredible job” that no one else could have done. Previously, Trump announced that during the course of tonight’s attack, which affected the Venezuelan capital, Caracas, and the states of Miranda, La Guaira and Aragua, Maduro and the first lady, Cilia Flores, were captured, who were transferred “out of the country”.

Their detention was confirmed later by the Venezuelan Vice President, Delcy Rodríguez, who demanded that the US government provide “immediate proof of life” for both.

The Attorney General of the North American country, Pamela Bondi, said that the Venezuelan president and his wife “will soon face the wrath of American Justice on American soil and in American courts.” “Nicolás Maduro has been accused of narcoterrorist conspiracy, conspiracy to import cocaine, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive devices against the United States,” Bondi pointed out, indicating that both the Venezuelan leader and the first lady were charged in the Southern District of New York.
