Secretary of State Marco Rubio faced pointed questions from lawmakers on Wednesday as he defended the Trump administration’s operation.

In prepared testimony for the hearing, Rubio says the U.S. is not at war with Venezuela and that its interim leaders are cooperating.

President Donald Trump said the U.S. used a secret weapon he called “The Discombobulator” to disable Venezuelan equipment when the U.S. captured Nicolás Maduro.

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado said Friday that her country will be free with the help of the U.S.

The Trump administration’s capture of Nicolás Maduro didn’t just shake Venezuela, it sent political shockwaves across Latin America and around the world.
