Venezuela's interim presidency has been handed over to Delcy Rodriguez after President Nicolas Maduro was abducted on a trip to New York. The Vice President, who had long held the position of President in the absence of Maduro due to illness and other circumstances, is now set to govern the country.
Rodriguez was formally sworn into office via state TV footage, marking the end of a period of uncertainty and instability for Venezuela's government following Maduro's sudden disappearance. The Vice President has been at the helm of the country since 2019 when Maduro fell ill and temporarily relinquished power to her.
As interim president, Rodriguez is set to face significant challenges in leading a country that has been ravaged by economic crisis, food shortages, and widespread discontent among its citizens. With Maduro facing narco-terrorism charges in New York, Rodriguez will be under pressure to demonstrate the government's commitment to addressing these pressing issues.
Rodriguez's ascension to power was met with mixed reactions from Venezuelans who have grown weary of years of leadership by Maduro and his inner circle. While some hailed her as a breath of fresh air, others expressed skepticism about her ability to address the country's deep-seated problems.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding Rodriguez's tenure, she has promised to prioritize the welfare of Venezuelan citizens and work towards stabilizing the country's economy. As Venezuela looks to navigate its future under new leadership, it remains to be seen whether Rodriguez can succeed where others have failed in addressing the nation's most pressing issues.

. She's been in this position for ages and has shown some promising moves so far, but it's gonna be tough to tackle all those economic woes and food shortages. Still, she seems like the most down-to-earth option at this point, you know? Maybe she can finally bring some stability to Venezuela's crazy situation 
. What do u guys think tho?
So now Delcy Rodriguez is the interim president and I gotta wonder if she's got what it takes to fix this mess that Venezuela's in 
The country needs stability ASAP, but with Maduro gone, who knows what's gonna happen next? 
Some people are hyped about her taking the reins, but others are skeptical – and rightly so, tbh. She's been Vice President for ages, so she must know the ins and outs, but can she really make a difference now? 
The economy's in shambles, food shortages are rife... it's gonna be tough to turn things around 
I'm keeping an eye on her, though – we'll see how she plays out this whole thing 
. With Maduro's sudden disappearance, there's an air of unpredictability surrounding her tenure 
, others are likely to remain skeptical about her ability to tackle Venezuela's entrenched problems 
, but only time will tell if she can live up to these lofty promises 
.
She's been in charge since 2019 when Maduro was out sick... I mean, who prepares for that kind of scenario? 
Anyway, this whole situation is super uncertain and I'm worried she'll be under a ton of pressure to fix Venezuela's economy and food shortages. Like, what even is her plan here? 
The fact that Maduro got "abducted" in New York is also pretty suspicious... was it really just an accident or something more? 
...she had 6 yrs to fix things and didnt...not sure how good she'll do now that everyone expects miracles 
at least its not maduro anymore lol 
The situation with Venezuela is super complex. I think Delcy Rodriguez has a tough road ahead of her, but at least she's got some experience leading the country. She's been Vice President since 2019, so she knows how things work in Caracas. It'll be interesting to see how she tackles the economic crisis and food shortages – that's been a huge issue for years. Some people might think she's got the right skills to make a difference, but others are probably still skeptical about her ability to lead the country effectively. 
I'm not sure if Delcy Rodriguez is gonna make a difference with all the chaos that's been plaguing Venezuela for years 
. The guy she's taking over from (Maduro) was like a ticking time bomb just waiting to happen 
. Now that he's MIA, what's next? 
. Venezuela needs someone who can honestly look in the mirror and say "we've messed up" 
.
.
, this is crazy! Delcy Rodriguez becoming interim president of Venezuela is like something outta a movie 
. I mean, imagine being at the helm of a country that's been through so much and still having to deal with all these economic & food shortages issues 
.
. Maybe Delcy Rodriguez will be the one who brings about change and stability to Venezuela... we'll just have to wait & see 
. Wish her all the best! 
It doesn't matter who's in charge, as long as they're not doing anything to fix the inflation crisis and get people some decent food. Delcy Rodriguez might be able to do better, but we've seen that happen before... or not 
Like what even happened to him? 
And now she's got all these responsibilities on her shoulders... Venezuela's been struggling for ages and it feels like they're just passing the baton from one person to another. 
...i mean i'm just a generation younger than some of these people but from what i've heard Maduro was like this super polarising figure and now he's gone missing? crazy! 
Delcy Rodriguez taking over is def a change but its also hard to see her succeeding where others have failed...i remember hearing about Venezuela in the late 90s it was all about tourism and economic growth, now its like a shadow of what it used to be 
. i just hope she can bring some stability and make things better for the people there 
, its just so sad to think about what they've been going through for so long 
.
and i gotta say she's got big shoes to fill 
her being vice pres earlier already showed she can hold it down but now its time for leadership 
she's got some heavy shoes to fill tho, dealing with economic crisis and food shortages isn't easy
