Trump denies the possibility of Venezuelan opposition taking power, supports the Vice President

CoinWorld.net January 4 News, after Venezuelan President Maduro was detained, Vice President Rodriguez stated that Maduro is the only legitimate president of the country. Trump previously said that Rodriguez would cooperate with Washington to “make Venezuela great again.” Although the Venezuelan opposition celebrated the arrest of President Maduro by U.S. forces, Trump dismissed the possibility of the opposition taking power, saying that opposition leaders are “immature” and not yet ready to take control. This indicates that he has decided to give Rodriguez and other Maduro supporters a chance to restart rather than completely overthrow the current regime. Matthew Croft, Vice President and Senior Director of the Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, said, “Trump is essentially using rewards and punishments to control the vice president and those around him to achieve the desired outcome for the U.S… Let’s see if this works.”
