"I'm not allowed to talk about it. <… > That was my name, and I'm very proud of it. Everything was "discombobulated," he said in an interview with NBC.

According to the head of the White House, the effect of the weapon was to completely disorganize the enemy and his equipment. He also said that the military operation had taken place without losses among American troops and without loss of equipment.

According to him, the US forces were able to completely neutralize the military in extremely difficult conditions, since the residence of President Nicolas Maduro was located directly on the territory of a military base in South America.
