Donald Trump: The “New Interim President” of Venezuela

Donald Trump surprised many by posting an image on Truth Social portraying himself as the “interim president of Venezuela,” while also stating he is open to meeting with Delcy Rodríguez. This post comes at a time when the US appears to be improving its relations with Caracas, with American diplomats already in Venezuela for talks to restore relations, which have been severed since 2019. Trump emphasized that his own morality is the only limit on US foreign policy, adding that he does not need international law and does not want to harm people. This move highlights Trump's unpredictable approach to international issues.
