Trump administration requests judicial immunity for Venezuelan VP Delcy Rodriguez in Florida civil case
Proceso DigitalLO·US · VE·1 day ago
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has scheduled a legal defense regarding his immunity status for November. The move follows ongoing international and domestic pressure concerning his administration's legitimacy and potential legal exposure.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is facing trial in the US on drug-related charges, with a scheduled start date of June 1, 2027. Confidence in the trial proceeding as planned is medium, given uncertainties surrounding Maduro's head-of-state immunity and the diplomatic rift between the US and Venezuela. The outcome of the trial and its implications for US-Venezuela relations remain highly uncertain.
