Will Trump negotiate with Maduro and refrain from military action?
While the US has deployed the largest military force to America Latina since the 1990’s, the naval siege of Venezuela will not necessarily devolve into a bloody confrontation.

After President Donald J. Trump stated that negotiations with dictator Nicolas Maduro was a real possibility, a report arises that Trump has already spoken with Maduro last week.
The two leaders reportedly discussed a possible meeting between them in the United States, according to the New York Times.
Reuters reported:
“The newspaper added that there were no plans at the moment for such a meeting, which – if it occurred – would be the first-ever encounter between the authoritarian Venezuelan leader and a U.S. president.
The revelation of the phone call comes as Trump continues to use bellicose rhetoric toward Venezuela, while also entertaining the possibility of diplomacy. Trump had previously indicated he would be open to speaking with Maduro, though the Times report indicates that such a conversation has already happened.”
The Trump administration calls Maduro an illegitimate leader leading the Cartel de los Soles.
“Since early September, the U.S. government has been bombing alleged drug boats originating in Venezuela and other Latin American nations, a practice that Democrats, scholars and human rights experts have described as extrajudicial executions.”
On Thursday, Trump repeated his previous threats to begin bombing land-based targets.
“The land is easier, but that’s going to start very soon,” Trump told reporters.”
NYTIMES – President Trump spoke by phone last week with Nicolás Maduro, the Venezuelan leader, and discussed a possible meeting between them, multiple people with knowledge of the matter said, even as the United States continues to threaten military action against Venezuela.
