Trump 'considering' Venezuela as 51st state, acting president responds [View all]
More than five months after the United States captured now-former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, President Donald Trump has again suggested that his administration would try to annex the oil-rich country.
The president told Fox News correspondent John Roberts on Monday, May 11, that he was now “seriously considering a move to make Venezuela the 51st state.”
But the South American nation's current leader quickly pushed back on the idea.
Venezuela's acting President Delcy Rodríguez, while speaking to reporters on Monday in the Netherlands, said her country had no plans of being annexed by the United States, according to the Associated Press.
