The Trump administration has conveyed a warning to Diosdado Cabello, a senior figure in the Venezuelan regime, to help interim President Delcy Rodriguez stay in power or face a similar fate to Nicolas Maduro, captured by U.S. forces and taken to prison last Saturday.
Reuters reported that the administration told Cabello he could be the first one to fall should it decide to take action against the Caracas regime again. The outlet added that officials are concerned that the official, who leads security forces accused of human rights abuses, could derail the interim president as Washington seeks its cooperation, at least temporarily.
