In the middle of the chaos that followed Maduro’s death, two strong women, María Corina Machado and Delcy Rodríguez, are fighting for the future of Venezuela and President Trump’s important support. Their fight could change how the U.S. and Venezuela get along and how they get oil.

María Corina Machado, a Nobel Peace Prize winner with a lot of public support, has lunch with Trump at the White House to change his mind. After a recent phone call, Trump called Delcy Rodríguez a “terrific person,” which helped her image as a practical person.

The U.S. buying oil from Venezuela shows that relations with Rodríguez’s group are getting better, with stability and business deals taking precedence over elections. Trump’s support is still changing. He praises Rodríguez but questions Machado’s support at home, even though she is well-known. In the past, one conversation has changed alliances, as seen with other leaders.

After Maduro’s capture by the U.S., Trump promises that the U.S. will keep an eye on “law and order” before the transition, looking at the country’s huge oil reserves. Rodríguez offers to work together, while Machado pushes for democracy.
