One day after taking office following the kidnapping of Nicolas Maduro,Venezuela's CEO, Delcy Rodriguez , has reiterated his desire to pursue an "agenda of cooperation "with the US based on shared development and respect for international legality.

In social media statements, the CEO has reiterated the peaceful will of the Latin American country under pressure from Washington.

Faced with this, President Donald Trump has declared that his government is now "in charge" of Venezuela and needs "full access" to "rebuild" the country.

In fact, the president says the Venezuelan oil industry is ruined and US companies are willing to invest.

Trump has again threatened the Venezuelan authorities with further action in the absence of cooperation, without ruling out a second attack or military presence.

The President of the United States has therefore avoided pronouncing on the release of elections or political prisoners, whose priority is to "repair" Venezuela and "restore its economic capacity."

Thousands of protesters have taken to the streets in Minneapolis to protest the shooting of Renee Good by an immigration agent

Thousands of protesters have taken to the streets of central Minneapolis again this Saturday in protest over the murder last Wednesday of a woman by an agent of the Immigration and Customs Control Service. The demonstration has been called by the Minnesota Committee on Action for the Rights of Immigrants, very close to where the murder took place.  Local leaders, including Governor Tim Walz, have defended the need for the Minnesota Criminal Detention Bureau to be involved in the case, but have reported from that organization that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has vetoed their access to material related to the case. The FBI has left the investigation to itself.
