Venezuela’s Acting President, Delcy Rodríguez, held a high-level meeting Wednesday with Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten in New York, as part of the institutional agenda she is carrying out during her attendance at the United Nations General Assembly session.

The meeting with Prime Minister Rob Jetten, part of Rodríguez’s official agenda during her attendance at the United Nations General Assembly session, emphasized key areas for joint development, particularly energy integration between the two nations.

The meeting with the Dutch prime minister is particularly notable given the historical ties between Venezuela and Netherlands, which maintains close economic and territorial links to the Caribbean region through its constituent countries of Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten, all located near Venezuelan coast.

Strengthening this relationship could open new avenues for cooperation in energy and trade between Venezuela and the broader Dutch Caribbean sphere.

Venezuela’s Diplomatic Agenda

The diplomatic effort in U.S. territory also included meetings with other international delegations, underscoring Venezuela’s commitment to multilateral dialogue and cooperation.

Wednesday’s diplomatic schedule in the United States also included a meeting with Trinidad and Tobago‘s Prime Minister, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, who has repeatedly reaffirmed in recent months her intention to build bridges with Venezuela’s Acting President in pursuit of agreements of mutual benefit, expressing her explicit willingness to maintain direct dialogue with Caracas.

The official agenda for Wednesday also includes Rodríguez’s address to the U.N. General Assembly plenary, where she is expected to position multilateralism as the central axis of global governance and the fundamental path toward ensuring greater peaceful coexistence among states.

The previous day, Rodríguez’s agenda included a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump, in talks that addressed the bilateral relationship and progress on a cooperation agenda focused on strategic areas including energy, mining and security.

Rodríguez’s series of meetings in New York reflects an intensive week of diplomatic engagement for Venezuela, as the country seeks to expand its network of bilateral and multilateral relationships amid ongoing regional and international pressures. Her agenda during the visit has also included meetings with the presidents of the Inter-American Development Bank and the World Bank Group, as well as the managing director of the International Monetary Fund, underscoring Caracas’ effort to engage simultaneously with political leaders and key international financial institutions.

As the General Assembly session continues, Acting President Rodríguez’s schedule remains focused on consolidating Venezuela’s diplomatic presence on the world stage, with officials framing the string of meetings as evidence of the country’s commitment to dialogue, multilateral cooperation and peaceful coexistence between nations, even as it navigates a complex geopolitical landscape marked by tensions with Washington and other Western powers.
