Maduro asked Trump for $200 million to leave Venezuela

Thursday, December 04, 2025

Venezuela's president asked to keep $200m of his private wealth, amnesty for his officials and safe harbour in a friendly country as part of a deal with Donald Trump to step down and flee, sources said.

Those familiar with a phone call between the two leaders told The Telegraph that the plan fell apart owing to Nicolas Maduro's demands for a blanket amnesty for as many as 100 top officials.

During the 15-minute call, the two leaders also disagreed on how to set up a transitional government and on the location Mr Maduro would flee to from Venezuela.

One AI snapshot:

"The US spent an estimated $9.65 to $12.07 billion on military operations in Yemen, Iran, and the wider region in support of Israel's offensive wars during the two-year period ending in 2025."

Nicolas Maduro wants to keep his pelf to leave and we'll save American taxpayer money and US and Venezuelan lives?

And Dummkopf Trumpf said no?

The Shah of Iran, Baby Doc Duvalier, and Nicaraguan El Jefe Anastasio Somoza Garca also left their countries in disgrace with tons of loot.

I can't imagine why Trump, the pardoner of other massive drug dealers, didn't leap on this deal.

No, I really can imagine. He wants war, glorious war to feed his gluttonous ego and to distract from Epstein and the economy.

Someone who posts here is going to lose someone in Trump's war of choice.
