In the context of arranging the priorities of the American administration for the post-"Nicolas Maduro" phase, President "Donald Trump" affirmed that the United States is not in a state of war with Venezuela.

Trump clarified that the current vision focuses on the necessity of reforming the structures of the Venezuelan state first, completely ruling out the possibility of any electoral process in the near future.

Postponing ballot boxes for the sake of stability

The American president also cut off speculations regarding a rapid political transition, affirming that Venezuela will not witness new elections in the coming thirty days.

This approach reflects Washington's desire to impose structural stability and establish the foundations of the new administration before resorting to ballot boxes, especially given the exceptional circumstances the country is experiencing.

Rebuilding the "backbone" of the economy

On the reconstruction front, Trump revealed a plan to support the efforts of major oil companies aimed at repairing and building Venezuela's energy infrastructure.

These statements come to confirm that the recovery of the oil sector represents the cornerstone of the American strategy, not only to secure Washington's interests, but to reinject life into the dilapidated Venezuelan economic artery.

These positions reflect the White House's insistence on managing the Venezuelan file with a direct grip, considering that the radical reform of institutions and the energy sector is the mandatory path before talking about any democratic future.
