00:00Mr. President, on Venezuela, can you tell us more about why the airspace above Venezuela should be considered close?

00:06Yeah, because we consider Venezuela to be not a very friendly country.

00:09They said millions of people, really, and probably a number in excess of that.

00:15And a lot of those people shouldn't be in our country, from jails, from gangs, from drug dealers,

00:22from all of the people that came into our country shouldn't have been in our country, causing a lot of problems.

00:26Does your warning...

00:27And drugs.

00:28Does your warning mean that an airstrike is imminent, or should we not read it that way?

00:33Don't read anything into it.

00:35The New York Times reported that you had a phone call with Maduro. Did you?

00:39I don't want to comment on it. The answer is yes.

00:41And can you tell us a little bit about it?

00:42No, I can't do that.

00:43Mr. President, would you say it went well?

00:47I wouldn't say it went well or badly. It was a phone call. Yeah.
