Delcy Eloina Rodriguez Gomez, who is known simply as Delcy in Venezuela, was once asked why she decided to study law at the Central University of Venezuela after finishing school. Her answer: "I made this decision to achieve justice for my father!" In a way, the 56-year-old lawyer, political hardliner and "tigress," as Nicolas Maduro once admiringly called her, has succeeded: The daughter of former Marxist guerrilla Jorge Antonio Rodriguez is now Venezuela's interim president and thus the most powerful person in the country.
