Marco Rubio Lays Out How Trump Admin Will Gauge Venezuelan Cooperation

DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Secretary of State Marco Rubio told ABC News host George Stephanopoulos on Sunday that Venezuelan cooperation would be judged by the ruling party’s actions after the arrest of the country’s president.

American military forces, reportedly including the United States Army’s elite Delta Force, spearheaded the protection of a law enforcement operation which arrested Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife in Caracas, Trump announced in a Saturday morning post on Truth Social.

Stephanopoulos questioned Rubio about what would occur next and what Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodriguez told the secretary of state.

“We’re not going to judge moving forward based simply on what’s said in press conferences. We want to see action here at the end of the day.
