Venezuela “doesn’t want to f— around with the United States”, Donald Trump said on Friday.
The president told reporters that Nicolás Maduro, the Venezuelan leader, had made sweeping concessions to the US after Mr Trump said he was considering ground strikes against Venezuela.
Mr Trump has repeatedly accused Venezuela of being a hub for the trafficking of fentanyl to the US. In October, he declared the US was in an “armed conflict” with drug cartels to legitimise military strikes on drug boats. Four such strikes have been carried out to date.
