‘We’re going to have to look at’ supporting Machado to lead Venezuela – Trump

Asked if he will support opposition leader Maria Corina Machado – who is currently in Norway – to take over Venezuela, Trump tells Fox News “we’re going to have to look at it right now”.

“They [Venezuela] have a vice president, as you know,” he says. “I don’t know what kind of an election that was, but, you know, the election of Maduro was a disgrace.”

Maduro’s capture “sends a signal we’re not going to be we’re not going to be pushed around anymore”, Trump also says.

He alleges the US is losing hundreds of thousands of people a year to drugs, adding “we’re not going to allow it anymore with this”. (BBC)
