BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 3. US armed forces
conducted an extraordinary military operation in the capital of
Venezuela, said US President Donald Trump during today's press
conference, Trend
reports.
"Overwhelming American military power, air, land, and sea was
used to launch a spectacular assault, and it was an assault like
people have not seen since World War II. It was a force against a
heavily fortified military fortress in the heart of Caracas to
bring outlaw dictator Nicolas Maduro to justice," he stated.
Trump emphasized that this was one of the most stunning,
effective, and powerful displays of American military might and
competence in American history.
"No nation in the world could achieve what America achieved
yesterday or, frankly, in just a short period of time. All
Venezuelan military capacities were rendered powerless as the men
and women of our military, working with U.S. law enforcement,
successfully captured Maduro in the dead of night. It was dark. The
lights of Caracas were largely turned off due to a certain
expertise that we have. It was dark and it was deadly. But captured
along with his wife, Celia Flores, both of whom now face American
justice, Maduro and Flores have been indicted for their campaign of
deadly narco-terrorism against the United States and its citizens,"
he added.
