Venezuela acting President Delcy Rodríguez said she has had enough of orders from Washington, in a speech to a group of oil workers broadcast on Venezuelas state-run television network Sunday.
Rodríguezs remarks come a little more than three weeks since President Trump announced the capture of Venezuela President Nicolás Maduro in an audacious military raid in Caracas. He has since declared the U.S. would take over the countrys oil industry and dictate orders to the government.
Enough already of Washingtons orders over politicians in Venezuela, Rodríguez told a group of oil workers in Puerto La Cruz, CNN reported.
Let Venezuelan politics resolve our differences and our internal conflicts. This republic has paid a very high price for having to confront the consequences of fascism and extremism in our country.

She goes against the pig and he removes her just like Maduro. We have the country surrounded and starving them of any income.

Right after removing Maduro, that he'd have her killed if she didn't follow commands.
