The White House’s official rapid response account posted video of what appeared to be a perp walk by ousted Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro.

“Perp walked,” Rapid Response 47 wrote above the video, which shows Maduro, in a black hooded sweatshirt, walking down a hallway with a blue carpet labeled “DEA NYD.” Maduro was processed and fingerprinted at the Drug Enforcement Administration office in Manhattan.

The video shows Maduro, handcuffed and walking alongside DEA agents, attempting to speak English after arriving on American soil.

“Good night,” he says.

He then questions himself in Spanish, saying, “Es buenas noches, no?” — which translates to, “That is good night, no?”

Maduro repeats “good night” to those in the room before adding, “Happy New Year,” with a slightly more animated tone.
