Venezuelan Vice President: Maduro is the 'only' leader - We will not become a colony

The Vice President of Venezuela, Delcy Rodriguez, in a video message, reiterated her support for Nicolas Maduro as the 'only' legitimate president of the country. She stated that Venezuela will not become a colony of any country and that it desires relations of mutual respect with the United States, always within international and Venezuelan law. The message comes in response to Donald Trump's statements about the possible takeover of Venezuela's government by the United States. Initial reports had suggested Rodriguez was in Russia, which was denied.
