US President Donald Trump was to meet yesterday with Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, whose pro-democracy movement he has sidelined since toppling her country’s leader.

Ms Machado's White House visit comes a day after Mr Trump used glowing terms to describe his first known call with Venezuela's interim president Delcy Rodriguez, confirming his satisfaction with the allies of Nicolas Maduro remaining in power, for now at least.

Mr Trump called Ms Rodriguez a “terrific person” and hailed “terrific progress” made since US special forces seized Mr Maduro and his wife in a deadly raid.

Ms Rodriguez, meanwhile, said the call was “productive and courteous”, and characterised by “mutual respect”.
