Published | Video Starts at 34:43

Thank you very much. Well, I don't have much to add to what you've heard now, other than the following points. Nicolas Maduro was indicted in 2020 in the United States. He is not the legitimate president of Venezuela. That's not just us saying it. The first Trump administration, the Biden administration, the second Trump administration, none of those three recognize them. He's not recognized by the European Union. (34:43–34:47)
