In Venezuela, the Trump administration has reopened the U.S. Embassy in the capital Caracas for the first time since 2019. The U.S. flag was raised over the embassy Saturday as Trump has touted the resumption of diplomatic relations with Venezuela after a deadly U.S. military strike led to the abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores in early January. Venezuela’s interim government, led by Delcy Rodríguez, has agreed to several of Trump’s demands, including granting the U.S. access to Venezuela’s vast oil reserves and other natural resources.
