The remarks came as the U.S. expanded its military presence in the Caribbean, deploying the aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford and additional warships as part of an anti-narcotics campaign. Trump also indicated that the U.S. would designate the alleged Venezuelan drug organization Cartel de los Soles as a foreign terrorist group, accusing Maduro of leading it—an allegation he denies. The administration has reportedly held internal meetings to consider possible military actions against Venezuela.
