Top updates: Venezuelan president lands in New York after being ‘captured’ by US military
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores arrived in New York on Saturday, hours after United States President Donald Trump said they had been captured in an overnight operation, CNN reported.
Trump said that earlier in the day, his country's military “successfully carried out a large scale strike” against Venezuela and its leader. He said that the US will “run the country” and will seize its massive oil reserves until a “judicious transition” can happen, AP reported.
Earlier, Trump shared on social media a photo of a blindfolded and handcuffed Maduro on his way to the United States.
The United States has accused Maduro of narco terrorism and drug trafficking, among other crimes – allegations that the Venezuelan government rejects.
The Venezuelan government has described the US government's actions as “military aggression” and has demanded that Maduro and Flores be immediately released.
In the wake of these developments, the Indian government strongly advised citizens to avoid all non-essential travel to Venezuela. “All Indians who are in Venezuela for any reason are advised to exercise extreme caution, restrict their movements and remain in contact with Embassy of India in Caracas through their email id: cons.caracas@mea.gov.in or the emergency phone number +58-412-9584288” the Indian Embassy in the South American country said.
