President Donald Trump has warned that Russia must withdraw a recent military delegation sent to Venezuela, suggesting he would be prepared to force it out.
The White House cut ties with Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in January, instead sponsoring opposition-controlled National Assembly head Juan Guaidó, who declared himself acting head of state. The move came amid mounting U.S. sanctions that have damaged a Venezuelan economy already beset by internal mismanagement, and about a month after Russia sent troops and aircraft to conduct bilateral exercises in the Caribbean.
Russian troops and planes were again seen in Venezuela over the weekend in order to conduct what Russia's state-run Sputnik News outlet cited a diplomatic source as calling "bilateral consultations."
Responding to this, Trump told reporters at the White House that "Russia has to get out." Asked how his administration could ensure this, he responded, "We'll see. All options are open."
