Chavismo and Venezuelan opposition have their first meeting under the tutelage of the United States
After the meeting, to which the press was not allowed access, the parties reported that they will be in a permanent work session until August 12, when they will define the continuity of the dialogue.
Talks between the government of Delcy Rodríguez and the opposition began this Thursday behind closed doors with a meeting in Caracas between the president of the National Assembly, Jorge Rodríguez, and Dinorah Figuera, the opposition leader chosen by Washington to lead the negotiations. The delegations from both sides met at the La Carlota Convention Center, where the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) holds its press conferences, and took the official photo in which no one is smiling.
No access was allowed to the press during the meeting. Later, in an identical statement published by both sides, it was reported that the teams will remain in a permanent working session until August 12, when they will define the continuity of the plenary session.
