In an interview with Fox News, Donald Trump stated that the United States does not intend to "let someone else just come in and continue what he did," referring to the current Venezuelan government. According to him, the US is already making decisions and plans to actively engage in events.
We are making that decision right now. We cannot take the risk of letting someone else just come in and continue what he was doing. So we're making that decision right now and we're going to be very involved in it. We want freedom for the people. We want, you know, to have a great relationship. I think the people of Venezuela are very, very happy because they love the United States. In fact, they were run by a dictatorship - or even worse. It couldn't have been worse. It was terrible - what was happening in Venezuela. A huge number of people were dying from drugs. And what they did to our country, sending us prisoners, people from mental institutions, drug lords - everyone, - they sent them by the hundreds of thousands into our country. It's just unforgivable
Additionally, Trump is expected to address the nation at 11:00 AM ET from Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida.
