In National News –

In a Reuters News Report – President Donald Trump will give a speech on Venezuela today in Miami to voice his support for Venezuela’s National Assembly President Juan Guaido, whom the United States considers the legitimate president of that country,

Though the theme may be more about US politics than anything else, Trump is to make remarks on Venezuela and “the dangers of socialism” at Florida International University in Miami, official said;

“He’s also expected to redouble US support for Venezuela’s self-declared president, Guaido, who says humanitarian aid will arrive by week’s end in his crippled country.”
