US-Venezuela conflict: Maduro wants to resign in exchange for immunity guarantees from Trump

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is considering resigning in exchange for personal safety and immunity guarantees from the United States.

This is stated in the material of The Atlantic.

In particular, negotiations are currently underway between Venezuela and the United States. However, the administration of the American president has different views on the situation.

The US special envoy for Venezuela sees a diplomatic solution to the conflict and Maduro’s resignation.

Instead, according to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the Venezuelan president is a member of a drug cartel responsible for supplying illicit substances to the United States.

Maduro, for his part, is trying to stall for time. He has accused the United States of waging a “disinformation campaign” aimed at justifying armed intervention.

Despite this, American officials have not made any decisions. The publication suggests that Trump is inclined to play a “double game” in order to reach a favorable deal.

Recall that the administration of US President Donald Trump has identified military facilities in Venezuela that, according to it, are used for drug smuggling, and is considering options for air strikes on them .

Earlier, United States President Donald Trump announced his intention to launch a ground operation by the American military in Venezuela . The main goal is to combat drug trafficking.

By the way, the United States has significantly increased its naval presence in the Caribbean , deploying the USS Iwo Jima and USS Gravely in close proximity to the coast of Venezuela.
