The Trump administration is ramping up its pressure campaign against Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro by releasing a criminal indictment charging him with drug trafficking and by posting a $15 million reward for his capture.
“As alleged, the Maduro regime is awash in corruption and criminality,” Attorney General William Barr said. “Hopefully, the Venezuelan people will see what’s going on and eventually regain control of their country,” he said. The U.S. Attorney for South Florida, Ariana Fajardo Orshan, added an unusual justification for some of the charges: that officials laundering money in Florida are driving up Miami real estate prices and lengthening the commutes of local workers.
