Ousted Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro returns to a Manhattan court on Thursday where he will argue that drug trafficking charges against him should be thrown out more than two months after he and his wife were captured in a surprise U.S. military raid in Caracas.
Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, have been embroiled in a dispute over U.S. sanctions that prevent the Venezuelan government from paying for the couple’s legal defense.U.S. special forces captured Maduro and Flores in a surprise January 3 raid on their Caracas residence and flew them to New York to face drug trafficking charges. Do you think that Venezuala should sue United States for its illegal invasion of the country ?
