Venezuela opposition leader María Corina Machado said she spoke with an envoy of President Donald Trump who secured the release of six American prisoners after a meeting with President Nicolás Maduro last week.

Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado on Monday downplayed fears that President Donald Trump had reached an understanding of coexistence with strongman Nicolás Maduro following a deal reached last week in Caracas in which the socialist regime agreed to receive thousands of her countrymen deported from the United States.

María Corina Machado urged her compatriots to maintain hope while vowing to fight for democracy after a senior Trump envoy cut a deal with President Nicolás Maduro to facilitate U.S. deportations.

Ric Grenell has traveled to Venezuela to meet with socialist dictator Nicolas Maduro and demand that he accept deported criminals from the U.S. and release American hostages.

Edmundo González, recognized by the United States as Venezuela’s president-elect, urges the Trump administration not to deal with the Maduro regime on immigration.

I know there haven’t been concessions,” U.S. Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart said of Trump’s talks with Venezuelan ruler Nicolas Maduro.
