Venezuela's acting president, Delcy Rodríguez, arrived in New York on Monday for the 81st United Nations General Assembly, where she is expected to meet President Donald Trump in the highest-level encounter between U.S. and Venezuelan leaders in more than a decade.
"We arrive in New York with the determination and hope of a people who believe in dialogue and unity among nations," Rodríguez said after landing, adding that Venezuela would attend the General Assembly to "bring its voice and defend its principles," with an agenda based on "respect, cooperation and understanding," according to Europa Press.
