Donald Trump has released the first photo of Nicolas Maduro after his arrest, showing him with his eyes covered and hands tied. Maduro, along with his wife, has been transferred out of Venezuela and is expected to be taken to Guantanamo and then to New York. The arrest was carried out by the elite Delta Force unit of the US military, which was also involved in the neutralization of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Maduro had been wanted since 2020 for drug trafficking.
