As mentioned earlier, Bernie Moreno confirmed that Trump will work with Nicolás Maduro.

This, «because he is the one who will take office next week (January 10).»

The Republican also mentioned that «the U.S. does not choose who the leaders of these countries are.»

«They had an election, people say it wasn’t fair, but at the end of the day, the interests of the United States are to stop drug trafficking…».

Another key interest for the U.S., according to Bernie Moreno, is «that all the illegal Venezuelans in this country be sent back.»

«And that they do business with the U.S. and stop doing business with Russia and China, and from that point on, we can discuss whether there is a free and fair election.»

On Friday, January 10, the new president of Venezuela will take office.

It seems that it will be Nicolás Maduro with whom Trump will work, based on what Bernie Moreno expressed.
