Full of cocaine: The United States reported what Maduro will be tried for. And even his wife

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, captured by US special forces, will be tried on charges related to drugs and weapons. This was stated by US Attorney General Pamela Bondi. According to her, the charges may go to the first lady.

"Nicolas Maduro and his wife Celia Flores have been charged in the Southern District of New York. Nicolas Maduro has been charged with conspiracy to commit drug terrorism, conspiracy to import cocaine, possession of machine guns and explosive devices, as well as conspiracy to store machine guns and explosive devices against the United States. Soon they will face the full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts," Pamela Bondi wrote on Twitter.

She also thanked Donald Trump and the military, while calling the first lady of Venezuela also a drug dealer.

"On behalf of the entire US Department of Justice, I would like to thank President Trump for his courage to demand accountability on behalf of the American people, and to express great gratitude to our brave military who conducted an incredible and highly successful operation to detain these two alleged international drug traffickers," Pamela Bondi added.

As EADaily reported, the US operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro lasted half an hour and caused active discussions about whether it was coordinated with the country's leader himself in advance.

Anonymous representatives of the Venezuelan opposition told SkyNews about their assumptions: the capture of the Venezuelan president could have been coordinated with Maduro himself. With what, perhaps, the swiftness of the operation is connected. Allegedly, Maduro's meeting with the Chinese delegation on the eve of the seizure also plays in favor of this version. The White House also spoke with Beijing.

US President Donald Trump has repeatedly stated that he wants to overthrow Nicolas Maduro. At the same time, Marco Rubio informed Senator Mike Lee that Maduro would be tried in the United States on criminal charges.

In addition, Venezuela itself has not been left without power. A state of emergency was declared in the country, and Vice President Delcy Rodriguez headed the state, demanding from the United States immediate "proof of life" of Maduro and First Lady Celia Flores. At the same time, the country's defense minister said that the country would not give up and would eventually win.

The Venezuelan people were supported by Russia, Colombia, Cuba, Brazil, Iran and Belarus.
