No military action plan being considered for Venezuela: US official

A top national security adviser to US President Donald Trump said on Friday that no military action plan was currently being considered in the near future for Venezuela.


The national security adviser H.R. McMaster said at a White House press conference that the United States had no plans to take military action in Venezuela, but that President Trump intended to take advantage of a broad range of "integrated options" in the future.

"Any decision will be in conjunction with the partners of the region," he added.

Trump said earlier this month that he would not rule out a "military option" in Venezuela.
