Venezuela's Delcy 'cuts off' US as Trump charts 'whip & dispose' plan for her? 'My destiny is...'

Acting Venezuelan President Delcy Rodríguez has rejected claims that foreign powers are governing Venezuela following the dramatic US military operation that resulted in the capture of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores. Rodríguez insisted that “the government of Venezuela rules our country, and no one else,” and declared that “there is no external agent governing Venezuela,” reaffirming national sovereignty despite intense international pressure and statements from Washington suggesting US influence in Venezuela’s political transition. Rodríguez’s remarks come as her administration balances cooperation and resistance amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.
