A series of immigration executive actions signed by President Donald Trump on the first day of his second term included a call for the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang as a global terrorist organization.

Police say several members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua were arrested in the Bronx on Tuesday as part of a first-of-its-kind gun trafficking operation.

The visit came as a shock to many Venezuelans who hoped that Trump would continue the “maximum pressure” campaign he pursued against the authoritarian Venezuelan leader during his first term.

Venezuela released six detained Americans on Friday as President Donald Trump’s envoy for special missions ended a visit that included talks on U.S. efforts to repatriate large numbers of people who fled the South American country in recent years.

Richard Grenell, President Donald Trump’s special missions envoy, tweeted that he was returning from his trip to Caracas with the six Americans.
