President Donald Trump insisted Sunday the United States is “in charge” of Venezuela after the seizure of Nicolas Maduro, but was also dealing with the new interim leadership in Caracas.
“We’re dealing with the people who just got sworn in. Don’t ask me who’s in charge because I’ll give you an answer and it’ll be very controversial,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One when asked if he had spoken to interim leader Delcy Rodriguez.
Pressed on what he meant, Trump said: “It means we’re in charge.”
