And the Monroe Doctrine is a big deal, but

we've superseded it by a lot, by a real lot.

It was very important, but we forgot about it.

Under our new national security strategy, American dominance in the Western Hemisphere will never be questioned again.

For decades, other administrations have neglected or even contributed to these growing security threats in the Western Hemisphere.

Under the Trump administration, we are reasserting American power in a very powerful way in our home region.

And our home region is very different than it was just a short while ago.

And we did this in my first powerful way in our home region and our home region, our greater dominance right now.

The future will be determined by the ability to protect commerce and territory and resources that are core to national security.

These are core to our national security, just like tariffs are.

They've made our country rich, and they've made our national security strong, stronger than ever before.

But these are the iron laws that have always determined global power, and

We will secure our borders, we will stop the terrorists, we will crash the cartels, and

we will defend our citizens against all threats, foreign and domestic.

Other presidents may have lacked the courage or whatever to defend America, but

I will never allow terrorists and criminals to operate with impunity against the United States.

This extremely successful operation should serve as warning to anyone who would threaten American sovereignty or endanger American lives.

Very importantly, the embargo on all Venezuelan oil remains in full effect.

The American armada remains poised in position, and

the United States retains all military options until United States demands have been fully met and fully satisfied.

All political and military figures in Venezuela should understand what happened to Maduro can happen to them, and

it will happen to them if they aren't just fair even to their people.

The dictator and terrorist Maduro is finally gone.

It's been a long time for them, but they're free.

It's a prouder nation this morning because it didn't allow this horrible person and this country that was doing very bad things to.
