A: Hey Hana, did you hear about what Trump said? It's crazy!
B: No, what happened? Tell me!

A: Apparently, the US basically took over Venezuela!
B: Seriously? How?

A: They say they captured President Maduro. Trump claims it was a special military operation.
B: Wow! That’s... a lot.

A: Yeah! He called Maduro an illegitimate dictator. They’ve indicted him in New York too, so he’s going to trial.
B: So, the US is running Venezuela now?

A: That's what Trump said. He wants the US to manage things until Venezuela is “safe,” he said.
B: And what about the oil?

A: He mentioned rebuilding the oil industry, but didn’t really explain *how*!
B: That's a big responsibility!

A: A lot of people aren't happy. Some Democrats are criticizing it.
B: And other countries?

A: Brazil, Cuba, France… everyone’s saying it’s a violation of Venezuela’s sovereignty and international law.
