Donald Trump confirmed that he had a phone conversation with the President of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, but he avoided providing details about the discussion. In a statement made aboard Air Force One, Trump said he does not wish to comment on how the conversation went, only mentioning that it was a phone call. Additionally, The New York Times reported that the discussion took place the previous month and included a possible meeting between the two leaders.
While Trump continues to use bellicose rhetoric towards Venezuela, he is also considering diplomatic options. Recently, Trump stated that the airspace over Venezuela should be considered "closed in its entirety," generating confusion and anxiety in Caracas. The Trump administration is analyzing options to overthrow Maduro's government, accusing him of involvement in drug trafficking. Human rights groups have criticized U.S. military actions in the area, and Trump has promised to investigate a recent attack that resulted in civilian casualties. The U.S. Secretary of Defense has asserted that the operations are legal and intended to be "lethal."
