Maduro, Wife Plead Not Guilty in US Trial

Maduro, Wife Plead Not Guilty in US Trial

Nicolas Maduro, the president of Venezuela, and his wife Cilia Flores went to court in the United States.

They said they are not guilty of doing bad things like selling drugs, washing dirty money, and being corrupt.

The court said they did these bad things, but Maduro said he is a good man and was forced to go to the US.

This is not the first time they have been accused of these things.

The first time was in 2020 when another president, Donald Trump, was in charge.

Now, there are more bad things they are being accused of, and the court papers were made public on Saturday.
