Venezuelan Foreign Minister Delcy Rodriguez charged that US President Barack Obama violated international law when he declared Venezuela a threat to US national security. In a press conference Rodriguez challenged Washington to openly say it does not accept the democratically elected government of President Nicolas Maduro.
