New US Charge D’affaires Arrives in Venezuela to Reopen Diplomatic Mission After 7 Years

The U.S. Embassy in Caracas reopens after seven years to restore diplomatic dialogue amid political shifts and calls for resolving differences through international law.

  • On Saturday, Laura Dogu, Chargé d'Affaires, arrived in Caracas to reopen the U.S. mission after seven years, with photos posted at Maiquetía's Simón Bolívar International Airport.
  • Following an amnesty bill announced one day earlier, the U.S. reopened its embassy in Caracas after severing relations in February 2019 amid U.S. backing for opposition lawmaker Juan Guaidó.
  • Dogu wrote on Instagram `My team and I are ready to get to work`, with Venezuelan officials framing her arrival as part of joint diplomatic talks.
  • The mission's return restores direct diplomatic channels for negotiations over detainee treatment concerns, while commercial flights resumed this week after suspension since 2019.
  • The move signals a broader shift after the rupture that began in February 2019, as resumed commercial flights and recent U.S. President Donald Trump’s military action suggest rapid normalization.
