Reference News, February 13 report, according to the Spanish newspaper "El País" website, on February 12. Venezuela's acting president Delcy Rodríguez was interviewed by NBC in Caracas on the 11th, which was her first exclusive interview with international media since taking office. Rodríguez issued a serious warning to opposition leader María Corina Machado: "If Machado returns to Venezuela, she will face national trial. Why did she request foreign military intervention? Why did she call for sanctions against Venezuela? And why did she celebrate a series of actions that took place at the beginning of this year?"
Machado has been in the United States for several weeks after receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in Norway at the beginning of December last year, and has expressed a desire to return home but has not specified an exact time.
The report said that Rodríguez also revealed that she had received an invitation to visit the United States. "I am considering it, and I will go once the cooperation framework is established and all matters are advanced," she said on the 11th during a meeting with U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright in Caracas.
Rodríguez insisted on the legitimacy of Maduro's presidency. Maduro and his wife are currently facing trial in a New York court on drug-related charges. "As a lawyer, I can clearly tell you that President Maduro and the First Lady are innocent," Rodríguez emphasized.
This interview is the second signal of dialogue from the Venezuelan leadership to American media recently. Previously, Jorge Rodríguez, the brother of the acting president and chairman of the National Assembly, had been interviewed by the American network All News Network. (Translation by Han Chao)
