US EditionWith Maduro gone, Venezuelan opposition figure gets back to work
Solorzano resumed political activity after Maduro's detention, focusing on freeing hundreds of political prisoners and demanding free elections, while cautioning that transition is not yet complete.
- On Tuesday, Delsa Solorzano returned to work at her Caracas office after 17 months out of sight and resumed activity at Encuentro Ciudadano party headquarters.
- Solorzano said she felt safer returning after Nicolas Maduro was detained in New York, but remains cautious since Maduro's allies still control the government and Delcy Rodriguez, Vice President of Venezuela, now leads with US President Donald Trump's apparent backing.
- Her previous public role came in August 2024 when she protested Maduro's reelection claim alongside Maria Corina Machado and other opposition leaders who later went into hiding, exile or prison, while Solorzano described her absence as 'a personal matter' and 'shelter.'
- Solorzano warned about Vice President Delcy Rodriguez's cooperation with US President Donald Trump on oil access and frozen funds, while activists question Rodriguez's government's claim it released around 800 prisoners.
- Solorzano said the transition remains incomplete and hinges on free elections, arguing the challenge is ensuring the people of Venezuela are heard in shaping their future.
