White House says Venezuela’s future 'dictated' by US as Trump embraces ‘American dominance’

The White House said that the Trump administration is working in tandem with interim Venezuelan authorities and has made it clear that U.S. dominance will prevail after the toppling of dictator Nicolás Maduro's regime. 

President Donald Trump announced Saturday that the U.S. had conducted strikes in Caracas, Venezuela, captured Maduro, and that the U.S. would run the country until a safe transition could occur. Currently, Maduro’s vice president, Delcy Rodríguez, is serving as interim president.
