Amid an unprecedented military buildup and the formal designation of Venezuela’s so-called Cartel of the Suns as a terrorist organization, US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that Nicolás Maduro “will do it,” when asked whether the Venezuelan leader had offered to step down. At the same press conference, Trump announced that US ground operations against “narcoterrorists” in Venezuela would begin “very soon,” adding: “We know where they live. We know where the bad guys live.” His comments come as more details emerge of a phone call in which, according to Reuters and France 24, Maduro reportedly laid out specific conditions for leaving office.
