Venezuela's Delcy Rodríguez at UNGA: Democracy not defined by elections alone
Delcy Rodríguez, interim president of Venezuela, addressed the UN General Assembly, framing the country's trajectory as a 'rebirth' following the June 24 earthquakes and the capture of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores. Her remarks signal a shift in Venezuela's international posture, emphasizing legitimacy beyond electoral processes. The claim of a 'rebirth' is unverified and likely rhetorical, but the speech marks a notable diplomatic engagement by the interim government.
