Trump tells Guaido's wife he will 'fix' crisis in Venezuela

WASHINGTON _ President Donald Trump in an unexpected meeting Wednesday with the wife of Venezuelan leader Juan Guaido, lamented the economic and humanitarian crisis where food and power are scarce in the Latin American country, and promised to "fix it."

The president, in the White House Oval Office meeting, sought to assure Fabiana Rosales de Guaido and the wife of Guaido's chief of staff, who has been detained by the Maduro regime, that things would "all work out."

Trump blamed past U.S. administrations for the current crisis and, without naming specific administrations, said they should have been "more forward thinking."
