The opposition’s Edmundo González, recognized by the United States as Venezuela’s president-elect, urges the Trump administration not to deal with the Maduro regime on immigration.

On a call with reporters Friday, Mauricio Claver-Carone, the U.S. special envoy to Latin America, said Grenell will tell Maduro to take back all the Venezuelan criminals and Tren de Aragua gang members that have been “exported to the United States, and to do so unequivocally and without condition.”

Six Americans who had been detained in Venezuela are heading home to the US, President Donald Trump announced Friday, after his envoy met with the country’s President Nicolás Maduro.

An agreement with the government of Nicolás Maduro will allow the deportation of hundreds of thousands back to the authoritarian socialist regime many have fled.

President Donald Trump’s special envoy, Richard Grenell, has traveled to Venezuela to personally deliver a message to socialist leader Nicolás Maduro, demanding that his government accept the return of violent criminals deported from the United States.

Richard Grenell, President Donald Trump’s special missions envoy, tweeted that he was returning from his trip to Caracas with the six Americans.
