('Delcy was communicating Maduro had to go' and 'but they didn't help U.S. overthrow the government. It wasn't a coup'... of COURSE it was a COUP. The military did NOTHING to stop it and the ONLY troops killed were those in the palace protecting Maduro. They were killed so they wouldn't tell anyone who was REALLY kidnapping the president of their nation. And what has she done since other than EVERYTHING Trump and the Heritage Foundation and Gusano Rubio want? Has she been in the UNSC DEMANDING the release of Maduro?!? No!!! Because she and her brother, the new dictators of Venezuela, don't want him to come back cus if he did, he would fire her like Hugo did. This is good info aside from that little tidbit of propaganda.)
(And one more thing for those of you out there who say this is from Western media therefore they are lying about the Revolution once again... Trump WANTS HER IN CHARGE and the colonialist press FAWNS over her daily. Have you not noticed?)
from The Guardian
Before the US military snatched Venezuela’s president, Nicolás Maduro, earlier this month, Delcy Rodríguez
and her powerful brother pledged to cooperate with the Trump
administration once the strongman was gone, four sources involved at
high levels with the discussions told the Guardian.
Rodríguez,
who was sworn in on 5 January as acting president to replace Maduro,
and her brother Jorge, the head of the national assembly, secretly
assured US and Qatari officials through intermediaries ahead of time
that they would welcome Maduro’s departure, according to the sources.
The communications between US officials from Delcy Rodríguez, who was then Maduro’s vice-president, began in the fall and continued
after Trump and Maduro spoke in a crucial phone call in late November,
the Guardian has learned, in which Trump insisted that Maduro leave
Venezuela. Maduro rejected the demand.
By
December, one American who was involved told the Guardian that Delcy
Rodríguez told the US government she was ready: “Delcy was communicating
‘Maduro needs to go.’
“She said, ‘I’ll work with whatever is the aftermath,’” another person familiar with the messages said.
The
sources say Marco Rubio, Trump’s secretary of state and national
security adviser, at first a skeptic about working with regime elements,
came to believe that Delcy Rodríguez’s promises were the best way to
prevent chaos once Maduro was gone.
The pledge
of cooperation by Delcy and Jorge Rodríguez before the Maduro raid has
not been previously reported. In October, the Miami Herald reported on
abortive negotiations via Qatar, in which Delcy offered to act as a
transitional government chief if Maduro stepped down.
Reuters reported
on Sunday that Diosdado Cabello, the powerful Venezuela interior
minister, who controls police and security forces, had also been in
discussions with the US at a point months before the Maduro operation.
