"We are in Washington representing Acting President Delcy Rodriguez and the Venezuelan people, at this new phase of bolstering bilateral ties between the United States and the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela," Blanco said on X on Thursday. The delegation has already met with US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau, US Senior Bureau Official for Western Hemisphere Affairs Michael Kozak and US Assistant Secretary of State for Economic and Business Affairs Caleb Orr to "explore opportunities for strengthening bilateral relations in the interests of both nations' peoples," Blanco said. Further engagements with US officials will continue in the coming days, he added. The Venezuelan delegation also features Felix Plasencia, charge d'affaires to the US, who echoed Blanco's remarks. He noted that Blanco's trip aims to reestablish Venezuela's diplomatic presence in Washington and address key concerns for Venezuelan citizens. The visit unfolds amid a gradual restoration of contacts between Caracas and Washington. Previously, both sides expressed commitment to pursuing mutually beneficial cooperation.
