Delcy Rodríguez Reveals Details of ‘Historic’ Trump Meeting

The informal talks followed a U.S.-Venezuela energy pact covering more than 65 billion barrels of crude oil reserves, officials said.

  • On Tuesday, President Donald Trump held talks with Venezuelan Acting President Delcy Rodriguez at the 81st United Nations General Assembly in New York, marking their first direct encounter since the capture of former President Nicolas Maduro.
  • Following the detention of Maduro, Washington recognized Rodriguez as interim head of government in Caracas; Maduro was flown to New York in January to face federal narcotics charges, which he has denied.
  • The meeting included White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller, following an August energy pact securing more than 65 billion barrels across 17 Venezuelan oil fields.
  • Rodriguez expressed appreciation for the United States' "steadfast support" following the June 24 earthquakes, while also thanking Washington for assisting Caracas with its "reintegration into multilateral forums."
  • Both sides affirmed a commitment to diplomacy focused on achieving concrete results, with Rodriguez stating the historic connection between the nations is now "called upon to steer through dialogue.
