Venezuela's Delcy Rodríguez meets Trump at UN; Maduro imprisoned in NYC

Delcy Rodríguez, once a senior Chavista official, now meets with President Trump at the UN, who recognizes her as interim president of Venezuela, while Nicolás Maduro remains imprisoned in New York. This marks a significant realignment: a former regime insider is now legitimized by the US, potentially sidelining opposition leaders like María Corina Machado. The shift suggests US policy is prioritizing a negotiated transition with a Chavista faction over a clean break with the old regime.
