On the night from Friday to Saturday [sobotę czasu polskiego] The US attacked Venezuela and captured and deported the country's leader, Nicolas Maduro, and his wife to New York. On Monday, they both appeared in a New York court and heard four charges: participating in a narco-terrorist conspiracy, importing cocaine into the United States and two charges related to possessing prohibited weapons.
Also on Monday, the country's current vice president, Delcy Rodriguez, was sworn in as acting president of Venezuela. When asked by NBC News whether he had talked to a politician, Donald Trump avoided answering. However, he said that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio “speaks Spanish fluently” and that their “relationship is very strong.”
Due to the US attack, the UN Security Council met at the request of Colombia.
