"Only time will tell," said President Donald Trump, in response to questions about how long the United States expects to help run Venezuela following Nicolás Maduro's ouster. "We will rebuild it in a very profitable way," said the president. "We're going to be using oil, and we're going to be taking oil. We're getting oil prices down, and we're going to be giving money to Venezuela, which they desperately need."
Trump also announced via Truth Social this morning that he has "cancelled the previously expected second Wave of Attacks, which looks like it will not be needed" due to Venezuela's "cooperation." Trump also said that Venezuela "is releasing large numbers of political prisoners as a sign of 'Seeking Peace,'" which he called "a very important and smart gesture."
