Donald Trump praises Delcy Rodríguez, but postpones elections in Venezuela

RTP Notícias3 September 2026 at 07:50

Donald Trump praised Delcy Rodríguez, a Venezuelan political figure, in a gesture that surprised many international observers. The President of the United States publicly expressed his recognition for Rodríguez's work or position in the Venezuelan political context.

However, Trump made it known that the United States considers that Venezuela does not yet meet the necessary conditions to hold elections immediately. This position represents a significant postponement regarding the democratic process in the South American country.

Trump's statement comes at a time of great political tension in Venezuela, where Nicolás Maduro's regime has been widely questioned by the international community. The American position suggests a cautious approach regarding the Venezuelan electoral situation.
