U.S. In Venezuela, Future Of Venezuela, Maduro In NYC Court

The podcast focuses on the U.S.'s involvement in Venezuela, following the capture of Nicolás Maduro. It examines the implications of President Trump's declaration that the U.S. is "in charge" and the potential consequences of this stance, including a possible "second strike." The discussion covers Secretary of State Marco Rubio's framing of the U.S. role as shaping policies in Venezuela, particularly concerning drug trafficking and migration. NPR correspondents Greg Myre and Kerry Kahn provide insights into the situation, including the shift in tone from interim president Delcy Rodríguez, who now expresses a willingness to cooperate with the U.S. The podcast further explores the legal justification for Maduro's arrest and potential arguments he might use in court, such as head-of-state immunity.
