Chavismo and Venezuelan opposition agree to renew all Supreme magistrates
The negotiating table, overseen by the United States, will meet again in mid-September.
The first cycle of talks between Delcy Rodríguez's Government and the opposition has been completed. The agreements have focused on the judiciary, with a total renewal of the Supreme Court that reverses the process that had already been initiated by the Parliament under Chavista control. The consensus was reached on Wednesday, after more than six hours of deliberations that ended with the signing of a document by Jorge Rodríguez, representing the Executive, and Dinorah Figuera, as president of the 2015 National Assembly.
The two read out a single statement in parts, flanked by their teams, and shook hands for the photographs.
