U.S. President #特朗普 recently shared a photo showing he is also listed as 'Acting President of Venezuela' with a start date of January 2026
The photo was posted on his social media platform Truth Social
However, there is currently no official document or legal framework indicating that the U.S. President holds any governing or ruling role at #委内瑞拉
#马杜罗 and his wife, former First Lady Celia Flores, were arrested during a U.S. military operation in Caracas and flown to New York. The couple is currently detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, facing federal charges related to drug trafficking and alleged collaboration with gangs designated as terrorist organizations by the United States.
Maduro himself has denied all allegations.
U.S. officials stated the operation was carried out by U.S. Army Delta Force, with the U.S. having conducted months of military buildup in the region, including deploying the aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford and other naval forces to the Caribbean Sea.
After Maduro was removed, Venezuela's Vice President and Minister of Oil, Delcy Rodríguez, officially took the oath as interim president last week.
The 56-year-old lawyer and key figure in the ruling political movement was sworn in before the National Assembly led by her brother, Jorge Rodríguez.
