It's
Pretty grim still in Venezuela.
The morgues in La Guayra, one of the hardest hit areas near the Capitol Caracas, they are overflowing.
There are thousands of people displaced, and this is really a huge blow for a country where there were growing hopes that it might be getting back onto its feet.
Instead now what we see is a real beginning of public anger at the regime in Venezuela's response to this earthquake.
Well, the damage is just huge.
In terms of the death toll, that is unfortunately still going to rise higher.
There are five thousand people injured, hundreds of buildings flattened or damaged, and also critical infrastructure, including health centers that have been seriously damaged and making them unable to be used.
So it's a very
difficult situation still right now, a week on.
Well, since the capture of Nicolas Maduro in January, he was the authoritarian president of Venezuela and was seized by US Special Forces.
Since then, Delcy Rodriguez, she was Maduro's former vice president, and she's been running the country, but with close collaboration with Washington, under the watchful eye, if you like, of Donald Trump.
And both sides have sold that as mutually beneficial.
America has eased sanctions.
On Venezuela and on Miss Rodriguez herself.
And in return, Rodriguez has maintained stability.
She's reformed some of the rules that made it very hard for investors from outside the country to get into Venezuela's oil or mining sectors.
And she has released quite a number of political prisoners, not all though.
So a sense of stabilization and perhaps a little bit of liberalization.
Of course, Donald Trump's portrayed this as an enormous strategic success.
