United Morning Post reported today: "Venezuelan acting president Rodriguez promised to ensure that President Maduro and his wife Flores return to Venezuela."
Rodriguez vowed, "She will not rest for a minute before Maduro and Flores return to Venezuela." She pointed out that a year ago, she took the oath with Maduro, starting his third presidential term. "After a year, we took the oath again, fighting for his freedom."
Commentary: Rodriguez's statement is not just a personal commitment, but a signal of cohesion to domestic supporters and the Chávezist camp. Taking the oath together a year ago, and then taking the oath again a year later for his freedom, this "binding narrative" both strengthens her own legitimacy and directly opposes the U.S. characterization of Maduro as a "criminal."
However, she faces an extremely difficult reality: the military threat from the U.S. has not subsided, and the U.S. has already regarded her as an "accessible alternative" and is using both soft and hard measures. Although the domestic opposition is temporarily silent, hidden dangers remain. The vow to "fight for Maduro's freedom" is destined to be pushed forward in the squeeze between hegemonic pressure and internal balance.
