June 1 trial date set for Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro in his US drug trafficking case

A June 1 trial date was set for Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, in their U.S. drug trafficking case. They were arrested in a U.S. military raid in January and face life sentences if convicted. Their lawyers plan to challenge the indictment, citing sovereign immunity and the legality of the abduction, while the U.S. administration defended the operation as a law enforcement action.
