中新網1月5日電 據路透社報導，當地時間4日，美國總統特朗普接受《大西洋月刊》專訪時表示，若委內瑞拉代總統羅德里格斯「不做出正確選擇」，她所付出的代價可能比馬杜羅更為沉重。

特朗普進一步指出，其他國家亦可能成為美國干預的目標，並強調：「我們確實需要格陵蘭，絕對需要。」

另據此前消息，當地時間3日凌晨，美國對委內瑞拉發動軍事打擊，並擄走委總統馬杜羅及其夫人。同日中午，特朗普在海湖莊園發表談話，承認此次軍事行動的目標就是「抓捕」馬杜羅，並宣稱美國將「接管」委內瑞拉事務，直至實現「安全過渡」。

當天，委內瑞拉最高法院頒布命令，由副總統羅德里格斯立即以代總統身分接任，並行使總統的全部職權。羅德里格斯隨後透過委內瑞拉國家電視台發表聲明，指出美國此行徑旨在推翻委內瑞拉現政權，從而掠奪該國的石油及天然資源。
