U.S. President Donald Trump will make an announcement to the nation at 1 p.m. tomorrow, December 20, Visegrad24 reported in an X post (status 2001866670982467976) shared during the reporting window from 2:46 a.m. to 5:45 a.m. UTC on December 19. No details on the content of the announcement were provided in the Visegrad24 post. The report emerged over the nearly three-hour period amid ongoing U.S. military and diplomatic activities related to Venezuela, as previously noted. The announcement follows U.S. Southern Command's disclosure earlier on December 19 of lethal strikes by Joint Task Force Southern Spear that killed five narco-terrorists in the Eastern Pacific, directed by Secretary Pete Hegseth. Those actions targeted vessels on narco-trafficking routes, according to Southcom's X statement. Russia's UN envoy Vasily Nebenzia also condemned U.S. policy toward Venezuela as a "neo-colonial approach" during statements reported between 1:16 a.m. and 2:15 a.m. UTC on December 19, per Telesur and other X posts, reaffirming Moscow's support for President Nicolás Maduro.
