Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Giles Snyder.
New York City's Mayor Zaron Mamdani says he called President Trump to voice opposition to the military operation in Venezuela.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is being held in New York City and is expected to face trial there.
Here's MPR's Brian Mann reporting.
Mamdani, who took office just days ago,
said at a press conference that he phoned Trump and spoke with him directly after learning of the U.S.
military's action and the capture of Maduro.
It was an opposition based on being opposed to a pursuit of regime change to the violation of federal international law.
Mamdani said Trump registered his opposition.
The mayor gave no further details about the call.
Maduro and his wife Celia Flores have been indicted on federal drug charges in the southern district of New York.
Maduro was shown in a government video yesterday at the Drug Enforcement Administration headquarters in New York.
He's expected to face trial in Manhattan.
