from Here's the Scoop · host Kelly O'Donnell, Yasmin Vossoughian, Richard Engel
Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife pleaded not guilty in a U.S. federal court today, following their capture in Caracas over the weekend by the U.S. military. So, what does it take legally to arrest a sitting head of state? NBC News Chief Justice and National Affairs Correspondent Kelly O’Donnell joins the pod to break down the international law questions surrounding the arrest of Maduro, from sovereignty and head-of-state immunity to how far U.S. authority can reach. And Chief Foreign Correspondent Richard Engel shares with us how people on the ground are reacting. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
