The UAE has warned the United States that Israeli annexations in the West Bank would “damage the Abraham Accords and undermine the president’s efforts to expand them.” According to two Israeli officials cited by Axios, Secretary of State Rubio has indicated in private meetings that he does not oppose West Bank annexations and that the Trump administration will not intervene to stop them.

Venezuelan President Maduro claimed that eight warships, equipped with 1,200 missiles and accompanied by a nuclear submarine, are positioned against Venezuela. In a message to Trump, Maduro warned: "Be cautious, as Marco Rubio seeks to embroil you in a violent conflict in South America, the Caribbean, and Venezuela, aiming to tarnish your legacy with a massacre of the Venezuelan people, leaving your name stained for centuries."
