VENEZUELAN GOVERNMENT AND GUAIDÓ OPPOSITION BEGIN 'CONSTRUCTIVE' NEGOTIATIONS IN MEXICO

Domestically, the dialogue initiative has been backed by the near-entire spectrum of opposition and pro-government parties, with two-time losing presidential candidate Henrique Capriles stating that “the great winner will be Venezuela.”

Within Venezuela’s grassroots, however, the government-opposition thaw has split opinions, with many voicing their discontent at any potential concessions as well as likening the dealings to the Punto Fijo power-sharing pact of 1958.

APR leading member Rafael Uzcátegui was quick to criticize the negotiations, claiming that “the Maduro-Guaidó, Guaidó-Maduro [talks] are incomprehensible,” forming “another part of the absurdity” of the political class’ gameplay.

VENEZUELA: MADURO RESHUFFLES CABINET, ARREAZA REPLACED AS FOREIGN MINISTER

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro announced cabinet changes after a number of ministers were chosen as candidates for the November 21 “mega-elections.”

The most notorious shakeup was the appointment of Felix Plasencia, the nation's ambassador to China since October 2020, as the new foreign affairs minister. The diplomat will replace Jorge Arreaza, who has held the post since August 2017 and is a popular figure with grassroots and international solidarity movements.

VENEZUELA'S GANGS HAVE BEEN TURNED INTO ARMED CRIMINAL ENTERPRISES (PART I)

In July, security forces carried out a three-day anti-gang operation in the Cota 905 barrio of Caracas after an uptick in violence in the working-class district. The Operation, which caught the headlines of the global media, involved 2500 security personnel and left 22 gang members dead and 28 wounded.

Government sources claim links between the leaders of the “mega-gangs” and far-right groups and regime change paramilitary activities stemming from Colombia. Opposition spokespersons have denied any involvement.

Part I of this two-part interview with criminologist Andrés Antillano looks at some of the historical transformations that gangs have been subject to in light of changing relations with the state and the recessionary economy.

VENEZUELA: MADURO RESHUFFLES CABINET, ARREAZA REPLACED AS FOREIGN MINISTER

The cabinet reshuffle follows the August 8 United Socialist Party of Venezuela’s (PSUV) internal primaries where high-ranking officials were elected candidates for the November 21 regional and local contests. Carmen Meléndez and Eduardo Piñate leave their ministry posts to race for the Caracas mayoralty and Apure governorship, respectively. Maduro called them to "consolidate a great victory" in the upcoming mega-elections.

In that order, President Maduro appointed Admiral Remigio Ceballos as the new interior, justice and peace minister in replacement of Meléndez, while Yelitze Santaella will be in charge of the education portfolio, taking Piñate's place. Santaella lost her primary contest in Monagas state.

El Maizal communards talk about the impact of the sanctions, the creative solutions they have employed during the blockade, as well as the importance of political formation to keep Hugo Chávez’s socialist project alive.

El Maizal Commune lies in the fertile lands between the Lara and Portuguesa states in western Venezuela. Founded in 2009, this rural commune has become an important political and economic force in both the region and the country.

VENEZUELA RELINQUISHES STAKE IN DOMINICAN REFINERY, RECLAIMS DEBT

Following the swap, the Dominican government bought the Refidomsa shares from PATSA “for the same agreed price,” a reported US $88.1 million, to own the enterprise entirely.

The agreed compensation fell well short of the $135 million PDVSA paid in 2010, under former President Hugo Chávez’s government. The 49 percent stake had been acquired as part of the Chávez-led regional integration program PetroCaribe, which provided crude at preferential prices to Caribbean countries to boost development. As part of the agreement with Refidomsa, Venezuela would process its heavy crude in the Dominican 34,000 barrel per day (bpd) refinery. The partnership ended in 2015 after a global oil price drop forced Venezuela to wind down its project.
