Trump said that Venezuela’s new leader, Delcy Rodríguez, would help the United States run Venezuela. She quickly said the opposite.
Trump said Delcy Rodríguez was sworn in as Venezuela’s interim president and would act as a partner in letting the United States run the country.
“She’s essentially willing to do what we think is necessary to make Venezuela great again,” he said.
Less than two hours later, Ms. Rodríguez — who was Nicolás Maduro’s vice president — delivered a televised address to Venezuela that made clear she viewed the United States as an illegal invader that must be rejected.
If they are part of one China why do they have a separate government?

I’m pretty sure Taiwan doesn’t think they’re the same China as the mainland.

Okay bud.
I think you’re showing your lack of knowledge on the subject with this comment.
It’s well-known that both governments claim sovereignty over all of China, and both include Taiwan as part of that. Just this is claimed less strongly when the KMT aren’t in power.
Many people on the island want the status quo, or independence, but others also want some form of reunification. Opinions are varied.
The official position still is that there is one China. (The government in Taiwan even claims the 9 dash line in the south China sea lol)
Yeah but everyone knows the official position is bullshit.
Do you understand the difference between De Jure and De Facto? Maybe look up what those means because you’re showing a lack of knowledge of how anything works in the world.
Taiwan is de jure a part of China but it is a de facto an independent country. China has an authoritarian government that gets butt hurt over every little thing. So the One China policy is all about them “saving face”.
Maybe read up on strategic ambiguity as well if you want to be more knowledgeable about the subject.
TLDR, Taiwan is a country. A lot of diplomacy is about piling on layers upon layers of bullshit, because bullshit is preferable to war. But unless you’re working for a country as a diplomat, there’s no need for bullshit… Taiwan is a country.
They still use an 11 dash line IIRC
I stand corrected, forgot about that detail!
They say they don’t - the rest of China does.
