President Donald Trump is leaving the door open to a years-long involvement in Venezuela.
In an Oval Office interview with The New York Times published Thursday, the president wouldn’t commit to a tight timeline for U.S. involvement in the country, which he has promised to “run.”
“Only time will tell,” Trump told the outlet, when asked how long the United States would try to keep oversight of Venezuela. Asked whether the U.S. would continue in the role for a year or longer, Trump reportedly responded, “I would say much longer.”
