Summary
Venezuela reels from deadly twin earthquakes that have killed over 2,600 and injured 12,000, turning a humanitarian disaster into a political flashpoint. Acting President Delcy Rodríguez, whose interim term is expiring, defends her government’s response while facing mounting pressure. Her main rival, exiled opposition leader María Corina Machado, accuses the state of collapse and vows to return to lead a transition, even as the U.S. warns against her return, fearing unrest and halting flights to protect relief efforts. Machado’s movement has documented 36,000 missing and mobilized global aid, while Rodríguez insists rescue teams and international hospitals are already deployed — but with no clear plan for what comes next as her mandate ends.
