Secretary Wright, thank you so much for your time.

Glad to be here. Thank you for being here.

Absolutely. Well, we appreciate the conversation.

Let's dive right in with the big picture.

If you are sitting at home in the United States,

why should people in America care about what you're doing here in Venezuela?

Yeah, I think it's a great example of this groundbreaking diplomacy of President Trump.

You know, Venezuela's been spiraling downhill for 25 years.

Traditional efforts have really led to no progress.

And in fact, the problems for Americans in crime and drugs, illegal immigration, increased risks in the Caribbean neighborhood,

a lot of downsides to that. And President Trump's entirely unconventional way, here we are

at a pivot point of history, a dramatic transformation of the condition in Venezuela. No American

troops here, no taxpayer dollars being spent. Like, I think it's a first of the kind. And how is being

heavily engaged in Venezuela consistent with an America first vision and foreign policy?

Because this is the Americas.

This is Venezuela.

This is our hemisphere.

What happens in our hemisphere is much more important

to American lives than something halfway around the world.

Not that something halfway around the world doesn't matter.

This matters a lot.

Eight million people have fled Venezuela.
