President Trump has indicated that Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez could be a potential successor to Nicolás Maduro, following Maduro's capture by US forces. This statement shifts focus from Nobel laureate and opposition leader María Corina Machado, who had previously spoken favorably of Trump and won an election against Maduro. Trump stated he is in constant communication with Rodríguez's administration, though he declined to confirm direct exchanges.
