Venezuela's interim leader, Delcy Rodríguez, called on the United States to "work jointly on a cooperation agenda" and appealed for peace and dialogue after assuming the role following the U.S.-led operation that detained Nicolás Maduro on Saturday.
In a message published Sunday on her official social media channels, Rodríguez said Venezuela's priority was to pursue "balanced and respectful international relations" with the United States and other countries in the region, based on "sovereign equality and non-interference." She said the government is prepared to collaborate with Washington on an agenda "oriented toward shared development, within the framework of international law."
