Interim President Delcy Rodriguez has said she is willing to cooperate with the United States on the future of Venezuela, in a significant shift in tone from the immediate aftermath of a military operation leading to the abduction of leader Nicolas Maduro by US special forces.

“We consider it a priority to move towards a balanced and respectful relationship between the US and Venezuela,” Rodriguez wrote on Telegram on Sunday.

"We extend an invitation to the US government to work together on an agenda for cooperation that is aimed towards shared development,” she continued.

In a televised address on Saturday, Rodriguez denounced the US actions as “an atrocity that violates international law”, insisting that “the only president of Venezuela [is] President Nicolas Maduro.”

    Well all the details for the kidnapping if Maduro are slowly leaking out we already know that there has been a team of cia agents and informants that were watching his every move. So she will likely clean house quietly behind the scenes and then the country will be ran exactly the way it’s been ran over these last few decades.

      Yup, but this time USA will steal all natural resources and nothing would change for Venezuelans. Maybe some desperate militias would try to take over leading to civil war?
