Venezuela political dialogue enters third cycle in Caracas
The Venezuelan government and representatives of the 2015 National Assembly have launched the third cycle of political dialogue in Caracas. The negotiations, held at the Hotel Meliá Caracas, are focused on establishing political and civil guarantees necessary for a future electoral process. Key agenda items include the restructuring of the judicial system, specifically the total renewal of the Supreme Tribunal of Justice (TSJ), and the potential reinstatement of political parties that were previously disqualified or intervened.
The dialogue process is supported by the United States, which has recently taken steps toward normalization, including the removal of economic sanctions against Jorge Rodríguez, the President of the National Assembly. While previous rounds achieved progress in unblocking digital media and addressing judicial reforms, public skepticism remains regarding the tangible results for democratic freedoms and the release of political prisoners.
The government delegation is led by Jorge Rodríguez, while the opposition delegation is headed by Dinorah Figuera. Notably, prominent opposition figures María Corina Machado and Edmundo González Urrutia are not participating in these specific negotiations.
