According to US President Donald Trump’s announcement, Nicolás Maduro and his wife are already outside Venezuela following a US military operation the night before. This information was published by the president himself on his account on the Truth Social network, where he detailed that US forces carried out a night incursion into Venezuelan territory, which led to the capture of the Venezuelan president and his partner.
The American leader reported the news in an official message, in which he stated that the US army carried out a large-scale attack in Venezuela in which it managed to capture Nicolás Maduro. Trump specified that the operation took place overnight on Venezuelan soil and that both Maduro and his wife were relocated abroad after their arrest, as Trump himself published in Truth Social.
According to the president on his social network, the coup was part of a direct, large-scale military action by the US Armed Forces in Venezuela. The operation culminated in the capture of the Venezuelan president and his wife, data that Trump publicly confirmed through his personal account, said the media that disseminated the information.
The information disseminated in Truth Social was extensive in terms of the main events, but did not contain details about the specific destination to which Nicolás Maduro and his wife were transferred or about the current situation in the South American country after the intervention. According to the report, Trump also did not provide details about the logistics of the invasion, whether US military personnel from specific units were involved, how many troops were involved or whether the operation faced local resistance.
The announcement had immediate impact as it affected the head of state of a foreign country and his family intervening through direct military action by the United States. The news, first spread by Trump himself and later repeated by various media outlets, puts relations between the two countries in a new scenario, although no official reactions from the Venezuelan authorities or information from international organizations have been published, as the President of the United States himself published in Truth Social.
