Venezuela: Trump, why do I support the regime? I remember what happened in Iraq.

Washington (USA), Jan. 16 (LaPresse) – The specter of Iraq is the reason why the United States is collaborating with the Venezuelan regime. Donald Trump explained this when responding to journalists who asked why he sided with interim president Rodriguez and not with Maria Corina Machado. “Do you remember a place called Iraq where everyone was fired, every single person, the police, the generals, everyone was fired, and in the end they became ISIS. Instead of getting to work, they became ISIS. So I remember that,” said the president. “But I’ll tell you, yesterday I had a great meeting with a person I have a lot of respect for, and she obviously has respect for me and our country, and she gave me her Nobel Prize. I had never met her before, and I was very, very impressed. She is truly an exceptional woman,” Trump added, referring to yesterday’s meeting with Machado.
