President Donald Trump left the possibility of war with Venezuela on the table in an interview published Friday, after escalating the US pressure campaign on Caracas with an oil blockade.

Potus refuses to rule out a war with Venezuela

WAR FOOTING: Two US Marine Corps CH-53E Super Stallion helicopters are parked at the former Roosevelt Roads naval base in Ceiba, Puerto Rico, on Friday.

"I don't rule it out, no," Mr Trump told NBC News in a phone interview on Thursday.

Mr Trump also declined to say whether he wants to oust Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Authoritarian leftist Maduro says Washington wants regime change in Caracas.

"He knows exactly what I want," Mr Trump replied. "He knows better than anybody."
