Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem says President Trump has delivered a clear ultimatum to Venezuela’s vice president following the capture of dictator Nicolás Maduro on Saturday.
U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem says President Trump’s message to Venezuela’s vice president is clear: “You can lead, or you can get out of the way.”
“President Trump is done negotiating. He proved that a couple of days ago, that he is a man of action, that when someone is threatening the United States, he will defend it with every resource that we have, and he’ll continue to do that”, Noem told “Fox News Sunday.”
“His conversations now with the vice president in Venezuela are very matter-of-fact and very clear: ‘You can lead, or you can get out of the way because we’re not going to allow you to continue to subvert our American influence and our need to have a free country like Venezuela to work with rather than to have dictators in place who perpetuate crimes and drug trafficking.
