Venezuela's Interim Government and Opposition Begin US-Backed Political TalksPreviousNext

US-backed political transition talks began in Caracas between Venezuela's interim government and opposition representatives, including Dinorah Figuera, head of the opposition bloc recognized as the last democratically elected legislature. The dialogue aims to restore democratic institutions and potentially lead to elections amid Venezuela's ongoing crisis. Notably, opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, living in exile, was not invited. The US State Department welcomed the talks as a unique opportunity for peaceful transition and democratic progress.
