"President Donald Trump meets Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado in Washington DC on Thursday, January 15, as discussions continue over Venezuela’s political future following the recent US attack and removal of Nicolas Maduro. The meeting is set to focus on post-Maduro governance - with Trump insisting earlier that Machado, who beat him to the Nobel Peace prize, "doesn't have the support within or the respect within the country" to become leader. US forces seized Maduro and his wife earlier this month. Trump has vowed that he will 'run' Venezuela, while VP and interim leader Delcy Rodriguez has insisted her administration is in control."
