US Eases Sanctions on Venezuela's Acting President, Signaling Shift in Policy
Washington lifts sanctions on interim Venezuelan leader Delcy Rodriguez as the US gradually eases measures on the country amid the ongoing political turmoil.
In a surprising move, the United States government has lifted sanctions on Delcy Rodriguez, the acting president of Venezuela. This decision marks a significant shift in the US's approach towards the South American country, which has been embroiled in a political and economic crisis for years.
The sanctions, initially imposed in 2017, were part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to pressure the Maduro government and support the opposition led by Juan Guaidó, who was recognized by the US as the legitimate president of Venezuela. However, the Biden administration appears to be taking a more nuanced approach, gradually easing some of the restrictive measures as it seeks to navigate the complex and volatile situation in Venezuela.
