Trump Prepares First Meeting with Venezuela's Rodríguez
- President Donald Trump plans to meet Venezuela's interim President Delcy Rodriguez in New York on Tuesday, marking their first in-person encounter since the January ouster of former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.
- Following a landmark agreement granting the U.S. majority control of 17 oilfields, Trump promised the deal will generate upwards of $209bn in tax revenue for Caracas.
- This New York City gathering occurs just blocks from the federal detention center holding Maduro, who awaits trial on narco-terrorism charges following his January capture.
- Venezuelan exiles in South Florida expressed anger over the administration's warming ties to Rodriguez, whom they view as a socialist remnant of the Maduro regime.
- Officials frame the meeting as a strategic success, with one adviser noting, "Iran is tough, but Venezuela is without a doubt the president's top success, and Delcy is a key to that.
