Venezuela’s Acting President Rodriguez stated in an interview with NBC that the date for upcoming elections will be determined through political dialogue and reaffirmed his commitment to holding free and fair elections. This announcement comes amid ongoing negotiations between government and opposition leaders, with regional actors mediating to address election timelines following disputes from the 2024 elections. Opposition coalitions have emphasized the need for verifiable voter registries and independent observers, while international pressure from the US and EU calls for transparent elections as a prerequisite for relaxing sanctions on Venezuela.
