US President Donald Trump said Sunday his administration was working well with Venezuela’s interim leader Delcy Rodriguez and that he would be open to meeting with her.
“Venezuela is really working out well. We’re working along really well with the leadership,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One.
Asked if he planned to meet with Rodriguez, who was vice president to ousted leader Nicolas Maduro, Trump said: “At some point I’ll be.”
Venezuela’s Supreme Court ordered Vice President Delcy Rodriguez to become the country’s interim leader, after the United States seized President Nicolas Maduro and whisked him out of the country.
Ms Rodriguez, despite being a close Maduro ally, has indicated a willingness to work with the US, saying she is open to cooperate on Mr Trump’s demands for access to Venezuelan oil.
Her government has also vowed to release political prisoners and begin talks on reestablishing diplomatic ties with Washington. (AFP)
