Trump signals possible talks with Maduro as US ramps up Caribbean military campaign
US president’s comments come as Washington moves to list Cartel de los Soles as foreign terrorist group, expand military operations in Caribbean and Pacific

US President Donald Trump suggested Sunday that talks may be held with his Venezuelan counterpart Nicolas Maduro as tensions and a military buildup continue in the Caribbean Sea.

“We may be having some discussions with Maduro, and we'll see how that turns out…They would like to talk,” Trump told reporters in West Palm Beach, Florida before boarding Air Force One en route to Washington, DC.

His remarks came on the heels of a decision to designate the Venezuela-based Cartel de los Soles as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO), a move he said would allow the US to target assets and infrastructure linked to the government of President Maduro, whom he accuses of leading the criminal network.

“It allows us to do that, but we haven’t said we’re going to do that,” he said.
