TRUMP, VENEZUELA AND BITCOIN.
1. The News: The "Recovery Period" of 18 Months
Following the capture of Nicolás Maduro on January 3, 2026, during Operation Lanza del Sur, #DonaldTrump has been very direct. In his most recent interviews (like the one with NBC), he has made it clear that:
There will be no elections soon: He has ruled out elections for 2026, stating that "first the country must be fixed" and that people do not even have the conditions to vote.
U.S. Oversight: He has appointed a management team (with Marco Rubio and Pete Hegseth) to oversee the transition alongside Delcy Rodríguez, who has taken over as acting president.
