In the same post, Rubio described the Maduro regime as “illegitimate”, and said he made the Venezuelan institutions weakened, violated human rights and endangered the safety of the region.
“We extend our gratitude to the entire team involved in this operation and to our partners who helped ensure the safe liberation of these Venezuelan heroes,” he concluded.
