Venezuela Demands Proof: Where is President Maduro?

Venezuela's government has publicly asked the United States for proof that President Nicolás Maduro is alive and well. The unusual demand came from Vice President Delcy Rodriguez. She stated that Caracas is "unaware" of Maduro's current location. This follows swirling rumors about the president's status. Rodriguez directly challenged U.S. President Donald Trump to provide "proof of life." The Venezuelan government often accuses Washington of plotting coups. Officials claim the U.S. supports opposition efforts to remove Maduro. No evidence has been presented to suggest Maduro is harmed or missing. The statement appears to be a political maneuver amid high tensions. The U.S. has not yet responded to the demand.
