Nicolás Maduro has a status conference set in New York City federal court on Wednesday, marking the latest chapter in an unprecedented legal and political saga that has reshaped Venezuela's leadership.

The ousted Venezuelan president faces U.S. charges related to narco-terrorism, cocaine trafficking and weapons offenses after he and his wife, Cilia Flores, were brought to the United States following a dramatic capture by U.S. forces that removed him from power earlier this year. Maduro has pleaded not guilty and maintains that he won Venezuela's presidency.
