“Negotiations between the opposition and the Venezuelan authorities are going to resume. It is excellent news for which we have worked during the Paris Forum on Peace”, the French president tweeted in Spanish.
On November 11, this event hosted closed-door meetings between the chief negotiators of the ruling party and the Venezuelan opposition and sought to unblock the expected resumption of the process in Mexico.

Macronhis counterparts from Colombia, Gustavo Petro, and from Argentina, Alberto Fernández, and the Norwegian Foreign Minister, Anniken Huitfeldt, met with the envoys, who were unable to agree on a resumption date at the time despite the “progress”.
The ruling party and the opposition began negotiations in Mexico in August 2021 after two failed attempts, but Maduro froze them two months later for the extradition to the United States of Alex Saab, a close businessman.
“We will continue to support this process to achieve concrete results in favor of the Venezuelan people!”, added the French president, the eve of the resumption.
The agenda remains unchanged: opponents insist on a schedule for the presidential elections “free”, scheduled for 2024, after accusing Ripe to be fraudulently re-elected in 2018, while the ruler demands the lifting of sanctions that the United States imposed on the former oil power.
France, like fifty countries like the United States, are unaware of Maduro’s re-election in 2018 and expressed their support in 2019 for opposition leader Juan Guaidó.
