Full event: Trump announces attack on Colombia, Cuba &…? Next target after Venezuela? | Maduro| US
Published on Jan 05, 2026 11:01 am IST
Aboard Air Force One, President Donald Trump recounts the Venezuela raid as a “very dangerous operation” in which one U.S. helicopter was “hit pretty badly” and some troops were injured but, he stresses, no Americans were killed, while boasting that elite forces fought through heavy fire to seize Nicolás Maduro, whom he accuses of sending “millions” of prisoners, mental‑health patients, drug dealers, and addicts into the United States. He repeatedly declares that “we’re in charge” in Venezuela, says Washington will “run” and rebuild the country’s rusted oil infrastructure through major private‑sector investment after coordinating with big U.S. oil companies in advance, defends the intervention as a Monroe‑Doctrine‑style move to smash a “drug caliphate” in America’s backyard rather than nation‑building, and hints that Cuba and Colombia could be next targets as he links the operation to his broader promises of “peace on earth” and tougher action on narcotics and foreign adversaries.
