A plane carrying Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, arrived at a U.S. military base near New York on Saturday, according to local media. The reports followed claims that the two were taken into custody during a large-scale U.S. military operation in Venezuela.

Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez said on Saturday afternoon that Maduro remains "the only legitimate president" of the South American nation.
