Venezuela's opposition leader Maria Corinne Machado attempted to return to her country three times in the past 24 hours, but failed to complete the trip; according to a White House official, the country's acting President Rodriguez met with US President Trump during the UN General Assembly on Tuesday. A person with direct knowledge of the plan revealed that Machado tried to travel from Panama to Venezuela via multiple routes, including going to Venezuela by boat, and first flying to the Caribbean islands of Aruba and Curaçao before continuing to Venezuela by boat. These attempts come as Acting President Delcy Rodriguez is attending the UN General Assembly in New York and meeting with US President Donald Trump.
