The presumed successor to Venezuelan President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro is currently in Russia,<\/a> a report said Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Four sources familiar with the movements of Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodriguez confirmed her location to Reuters, although the news agency cited<\/u><\/a> Russia\u2019s foreign ministry as claiming the report was “fake.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Earlier in the day, Rodriguez demanded in audio played on Venezuelan state TV that the U.S. provide “proof of life” for Maduro and his wife after President Donald Trump<\/a> said the pair were captured in a U.S. military operation.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We demand that President Donald Trump\u2019s government provide immediate proof of life for President Maduro and the First Lady,” Rodriguez said, according to Reuters.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump later shared to Truth Social a photo of Maduro seen detained, blindfolded and clutching a water bottle while wearing gray sweatpants and a sweatshirt aboard the U.S.S. Iwo Jima. Trump said he would later be brought to New York.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Maduro previously served as Venezuela\u2019s vice president<\/a> before he took power in 2013 following the death of then-leader Hugo Ch\u00e1vez.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jorge Rodriguez, who is Delcy\u2019s brother and is the head of Venezuela\u2019s national assembly, remains in Caracas, three sources told Reuters.<\/u><\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

When asked about what the future of Venezuela holds with Maduro no longer in the country, Trump said in an interview on “Fox & Friends Weekend” that, “we’re making that decision now.”<\/p>\n

“We\u00a0can’t\u00a0take a chance of letting somebody else run and just take over where he left off.\u00a0So\u00a0we’re\u00a0making that decision now,” Trump told Fox News. “We’ll be involved in it very much, and we want to\u00a0do\u00a0liberty for the people. We want to, you know, have a great relationship.\u00a0I think the people of Venezuela\u00a0are\u00a0very, very happy\u00a0because they love the United States. You know, they were run by essentially a dictatorship or worse.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump later confirmed at a press conference in Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Fla., that the U.S. would run Venezuela on a temporary basis.<\/p>\n

The successors to Maduro are likely to be the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize winner and opposition leaders Mar\u00eda Corina Machado and Edmundo Gonz\u00e1lez, an expert said Saturday.<\/u><\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jorge\u00a0Jraissati, a Venezuelan who is the president of the Economic Inclusion Group, told Fox News Digital that “Machado and Gonzalez would assume a transitional government in Venezuela.\u00a0<\/p>\n
