US EditionNew US charge d’affaires arrives in Venezuela to reopen diplomatic mission after 7 years
Laura Dogu begins phased embassy reopening to restore diplomatic relations and consular services after seven years of severed ties, supporting dialogue amid Venezuela's political transition.
- On Saturday, Laura Dogu arrived in Caracas to reopen the U.S. diplomatic mission after seven years; she posted, `I just arrived in Venezuela. My team and I are ready to work.`
- Last week the U.S. named Dogu as charge d'affaires to the Venezuela Affairs Unit, following the U.S. capture of Nicolás Maduro earlier this month.
- Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yván Gil received Dogu and outlined talks to define a roadmap on bilateral interests, while the State Department said Dogu will advance a three-phase plan of stabilization, recovery, and democratic transition.
- U.S. officials said the reopening focuses on communication and consular services, not full normalization, and U.S. authorities announced all known Americans held in Venezuela were released on Friday.
- The reopening coincides with a $2 billion crude deal and oil-sector reforms, while critics say it breaches international law and Diosdado Cabello warned it could oversee the detained former president, as Delcy Rodríguez proposed amnesty and closure of El Helicoide.
