State Department warns US citizens to leave Venezuela

President Donald Trump told reporters on Sunday, “we’re in charge” of Venezuela, doubling down on his claim Saturday that the U.S. will “run” the country.

Trump said that he has not spoken to Delcy Rodriguez, Maduro’s vice president, who was sworn in as interim leader. Asked if he wants to speak to her, the president said, "At the right time, I will."

Trump also said that Rodriguez is cooperating with the U.S., a claim he made Saturday, which she appeared to dispute in an address to Venezuelans, when she called for Maduro’s immediate release.

Later, the president was asked about comments he made to The Atlantic, where he said that if Rodriguez "doesn’t do what’s right, she is going to pay a very big price, probably bigger than Maduro."

Asked what he needs from Rodriguez, Trump called for “total access” to the country’s oil reserves.

“Total access. We need total access. We need access to the oil and to other things in their country that allow us to rebuild their country,” he said.

The Cuban Communist Party released a statement on Sunday, claiming at least 32 Cuban nationals were killed during the United States' operation in Venezuela.

The party said that the citizens were killed in "combat actions" while "fulfilling missions representing the Revolutionary Armed Forces and the Ministry of the Interior, at the request of counterpart bodies of the South American country."

Venezuelan opposition leader Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia released a statement on Sunday, calling the United States' capture and arrest of President Nicolas Maduro "a turning point in Venezuela's recent history."

"Venezuelans, the events of recent days have marked a turning point in Venezuela's recent history. It is natural that there are mixed feelings, which we understand and respect. This moment is an important step, but it is not enough," he said.

The opposition leader referenced the 2024 election in the country, which he claims to have won, saying those results should be respected. He went on to refer to himself as the president of Venezuela.

"As president of Venezuela, I make a calm and clear appeal to the National Armed Forces and the State Security Forces. Your duty is to comply with and enforce the sovereign mandate expressed on July 28, 2024. As Commander-in-Chief, I remind you that your loyalty is to the Constitution, to the people, and to the Republic," he said.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Dan Caine, CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Attorney General Pam Bondi will be on Capitol Hill on Monday evening to provide a closed briefing to top lawmakers on the actions in Venezuela, multiple sources confirmed to ABC News.

The Gang of 8, which includes the House and Senate majority and minority leaders and the chairs and vice chairs of the House and Senate Intelligence Committee, will receive the briefing as well as the top Republican and Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Senate Armed Services Committee, House Foreign Affairs Committee and House Armed Services Committee.

The briefing is expected to take place at 5:30 p.m.

This comes after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on Saturday called for the administration to immediately brief the Gang of 8 on Venezuela.
