Delcy Rodr\u00edguez stated that the people of Venezuela seek peace and peaceful coexistence with other nations within the framework of international rules.<\/p>\n<p>She emphasized that peace among countries is the foundation for lasting global peace, and international relations should be based on balanced interaction, mutual respect, and the principle of non-intervention. According to Rodr\u00edguez, Venezuela desires balanced relations with the United States, regional countries, and the global community.<\/p>\n<p>The acting president called for the initiation of direct dialogue between Caracas and Washington to establish a joint cooperation program aimed at developing relations. She expressed hope that such a program could contribute to the development of both countries and strengthen peace in the region within the framework of international law.<\/p>\n<p>Rodr\u00edguez added that the people of the region deserve peace and dialogue, not war, noting that the commitment to peace has always been part of the declared stance of Nicol\u00e1s Maduro, the abducted president of Venezuela, and that this view remains the official position of the Venezuelan government.<\/p>\n<p>The statement concluded by reaffirming Venezuela\u2019s right to peace, development, national sovereignty, and an independent future.
