Venezuela's military said it recognizes Vice President Delcy Rodriguez as the country's acting leader after Nicolas Maduro was extracted from Caracas by U.S. forces on Saturday.

Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino Lopez issued a statement endorsing a Supreme Court ruling that appointed Rodriguez as acting president for 90 days.

Trump says the same.

“’She’s essentially willing to do what we think is necessary to make Venezuela great again’, Mr. Trump told reporters of Ms. Rodríguez. […] ‘Nobody will take power. They have a vice-president, who was selected by Mr. Maduro, who is currently the vice-president, and I guess is now the president’, he said.”

Seems like the obvious way to go! Has anyone brought up lifting the sanctions on Venezuela yet?

I think the Venezuelan people view her as just another Maduro / Chavista crony. Think the public will feel abused....but may be only realistic answer.
