After Maduro's capture/ Delcy Rodriguez sworn in as Venezuela's

Delcy Rodriguez, the former vice president of Venezuela, has been officially sworn in to lead the South American country following the capture of Nicolas Maduro in a United States military operation.

Rodriguez appeared before Venezuela's National Assembly to take her oath of office.
Speaking before the legislative body, made up largely of government loyalists, Rodriguez reaffirmed her opposition to the military coup that led to the capture and removal of Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores.

"I come with pain for the kidnapping of two heroes who are being held hostage: President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores. I swear that I will work tirelessly to guarantee the peace, spiritual, economic and social tranquility of our people," Rodriguez told the Assembly.

 Rodriguez has been serving as acting president since the early morning attack that resulted in the kidnapping. Explosions were reported before dawn Saturday in the capital, Caracas, as well as at nearby Venezuelan military bases and several civilian areas.

The swearing-in ceremony was overseen by Rodriguez's brother, the president of the National Assembly, Jorge Rodriguez, and Maduro's son, Nicolás Maduro Guerra, who held a copy of the Venezuelan Constitution.

Other members of Maduro's inner circle, including Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello and Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino, were also present./CNA
