Trump meets Venezuela's Rodriguez for first time since Maduro's capture

Marco Rubio said the talks focused on restructuring Venezuela’s debt, which he called one of the world’s largest sovereign debt burdens.

  • On Tuesday, President Donald Trump held a pull-aside meeting with Venezuelan Acting President Delcy Rodriguez at a United Nations General Assembly reception in New York, marking their first in-person encounter since the January capture of former leader Nicolas Maduro.
  • Rodriguez led a delegation seeking international investment in energy and mining sectors, aiming to prove the interim government is 'investable' while pursuing financing deals with United States officials.
  • More than 50 protesters gathered outside the United Nations on Tuesday, waving flags and carrying signs reading "No Vote No Oil" while chanting "Delcy, I swear, you're going to Brooklyn with Maduro."
  • Rodriguez described the meeting as "historic" on X, while Trump stated his administration seeks $100 billion in investment to flow into Venezuela's oil industry following an energy agreement signed last month.
  • Critics argue the administration has sidelined the opposition led by Maria Corina Machado, prioritizing economic deals over democratic transition as the Inter-American Development Bank faces board pushback on a proposed $2.5 billion loan for Venezuela.
