U.S. Vice President Jay Dee Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth will join a special group that will monitor the United States' involvement in Venezuela. This was announced on January 5 by US President Donald Trump in an interview with NBC News.

As the American leader noted, Stephen Miller, the deputy chief of staff of the White House, is also included in the group.

"This is a common group. They all have their own diverse competencies," Trump said.

The US President stressed that the key responsibility for decisions on the Venezuelan issue remains with him.
