22:55Now PlayingWhat's been going on in Venezuela since US forces seized president Nicolas Maduro?
Maduro, the deposed president of Venezuela, has appeared in court in New York this week alongside his wife, Cilia Flores.
The pair face charges of cocaine trafficking and possession of machine guns, which they deny.
Meanwhile in their home country, the Trump-approved interim president, Delcy Rodriguez, has been making deals with the US government over Venezuela’s oil and critical minerals.
The BBC’s South America correspondent, Ione Wells, has been in Caracas to find out how much life has altered under Rodriguez’s leadership, and to what extend Donald Trump may see this regime change as a blueprint for US intervention elsewhere.
