THE HAGUE: Venezuela has “never” contemplated becoming the 51st US state, as suggested by US President Donald Trump following the capture of deposed leader Nicolas Maduro, the country´s acting president said on Monday.
“That would never have been considered, because if there is one thing we Venezuelan men and women have, it is that we love our independence process, we love our heroes and heroines of independence,” Delcy Rodriguez told reporters as she left a hearing at the International Court of Justice in The Hague.
