Court schedules Maduro and spouse trial
The New York judiciary has scheduled the trial of former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, for June 2027 on charges related to "drug terrorism." The U.S. authorities accuse them of involvement in money laundering and drug trafficking through a network connected to a Mexican cartel, while Maduro and his wife deny the charges and insist on their innocence. This case comes amid long-standing tensions between Venezuela and the United States and is considered one of the most prominent legal actions against a former official within U.S. territory.
