US President Donald Trump unleashed a four-letter broadside at Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro on Friday, as he said the leftist strongman had offered major concessions to ease tensions with Washington.

"He has offered everything, you're right. You know why? Because he doesn't want to fuck around with the United States," Trump said when a journalist at the White House asked about reports that Caracas had floated de-escalation plans.
