"After Rodriguez called his administration a group of extremists on television, Trump quickly shifted his tone from calling Rodriguez gracious to threatening her directly. If she doesn't do what's right, she is going to pay a very big price, probably bigger than Maduro, Trump told The Atlantic magazine in an interview early on Sunday. The US president also said further strikes on Venezuela could take place, and he would not rule out putting boots on the ground in Venezuela,"
"Rodriguez, who served as Maduro's deputy since 2018, was made interim leader by Venezuela's Supreme Court on Saturday after Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were detained in the most high-profile and riskiest US military operation since the US Navy's SEAL team killed al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in a safe house in Pakistan's Abbottabad in 2011. In a televised address on Saturday, Rodriguez denounced the US actions as an atrocity that violates international law,"
Delcy Rodríguez offered cooperation with the United States and called for a balanced, respectful relationship aimed at shared development during the transition. She extended an invitation to the US government to work together on an agenda for cooperation. Rodríguez was appointed interim leader by Venezuela's Supreme Court after Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores were detained in a high-profile US military operation. Rodríguez denounced the operation as an atrocity violating international law and affirmed Maduro as the only president. Her prior willingness to cooperate conflicted with President Trump’s statements, which shifted to direct threats and the possibility of further strikes or ground forces.
