NEW YORK -- Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores will go on trial starting on June 1, 2027, a US judge ruled on Wednesday.
The couple, who pleaded not guilty to drug trafficking and firearms charges, made their third appearance in a New York court after the forcible seizure by US troops in a military raid in early January.
