Acting President Delcy Rodríguez chairs her first full cabinet meeting a day after Nicolás Maduro’s capture, softening her tone toward Washington by inviting the United States to pursue a “balanced and respectful” cooperation agenda focused on shared development even as she creates a special commission, led by her brother Jorge Rodríguez, Foreign Minister Yván Gil, and Information Minister Freddy Ñáñez, to campaign for the release of Maduro and Cilia Flores, who now face narco‑terrorism charges in a U.S. court after their January 3 Delta Force seizure in Caracas.
