Venezuela’s opposition leader María Corina Machado is working to return to the country as soon as possible, according to people with direct knowledge of her plans, a move that could reshape the political landscape as acting President Delcy Rodríguez struggles to respond to the nation’s worst natural disaster in decades.
Machado tried to travel to Curacao from the US last week with the help of private security contractors with the intent to reach Venezuela, according to the people, who asked not to be identified in order to speak publicly. The security team was already preparing for her on the tiny Dutch island off the Venezuelan coast, but she called off that attempt after President Donald Trump’s administration made clear she would be traveling at her own risk and without US support, the people said.
