El Periódico

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has shared this Monday a message in your account at red social Truth Social in which appears a manipulated page in Wikipedia in which he is described as “interim president” of Venezuelaafter the attack perpetrated on December 3 by Washington against the South American country and the capture of its president, Nicolás Maduro.

The capture, to which Trump does not add any comments, indicates that he has been “interim president” of Venezuela since January, when he “took over” the position, after ensuring after the capture of Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, that the United States would be in charge of managing the country’s affairs after their attack, which left around one hundred dead.

The capture of Maduro led to the until then vice president, Delcy Rodríguez, to assume the position of interim presidentwhile Trump said on Friday that he “cancelled a planned second wave of attacks” against Venezuela due to the “cooperation” shown by the South American country’s authorities since then.
