Venezuela opposition-government dialogue 2026

Overview

In late July 2026, Venezuelan opposition figures and the government prepared for a national dialogue slated to begin on 1 August. Deputy Tomás Guanipa described the process as a “great opportunity” and urged the talks to broaden participation, incorporate civil-society groups, and link sanctions relief to reconstruction following a recent double earthquake. He called for external aid, U.S. technology, and transparent resource management.

The negotiation table, which Dinorah Figuera announced would include ten representatives from each side, was intended to invite “all democratic sectors.” The United States has pressured for a more inclusive format that might include opposition leader María Corina Machado.

Ahead of the August 1 start date, the opposition party Primero Justicia confirmed its participation, joining leaders such as Machado and Edmundo González Urrutia. The party outlined priorities including the release of political prisoners, dismantling the repressive apparatus, appointing a new National Electoral Council (CNE), ensuring an independent Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ), and restoring political parties to their legitimate authorities.

By mid-August, Stalin González of the Libertad Parliamentary Group called for the dialogue to produce concrete results to address the country’s 27-year political and social crisis. He emphasized that effective negotiations must lead to tangible solutions, such as free and transparent elections, respect for human rights, and the restoration of state institutions through transparency and accountability.
