Trump Visits Fort Bragg To Honor Special Forces After Maduro Capture
4 weeks ago
President Donald Trump is visiting Fort Bragg in North Carolina on Friday to praise special forces members involved in the operation that resulted in the capture of Venezuela’s former leader Nicolás Maduro, officials said.
Accompanied by First Lady Melania Trump, the president plans to meet with military families and troops at one of the largest U.S. military bases in the world.
Trump previously spoke at Fort Bragg during an event last June marking the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary, a visit that drew attention for his partisan remarks.
Since Maduro’s ouster in an operation earlier this year, the administration has spotlighted its broader oversight goals for Venezuela’s oil industry and is expected to continue emphasizing foreign policy initiatives in the region.
