  • Maduro and his wife were transported aboard a U.S. warship to New York, where they are expected to face U.S. Justice Department charges related to an alleged narco-terrorism conspiracy.
  • Venezuela’s Vice President Delcy Rodríguez condemned the operation, said civilians and military personnel were killed, and demanded Maduro’s immediate release.
  • Despite being next in line to assume power under Venezuelan law, Rodríguez said she would not take over and declared that Maduro remains Venezuela’s sole legitimate president.
