Charting a New Course for Venezuela
In this edition of Wilson Center NOW, we are joined by Abraham F. Lowenthal, Professor Emeritus of International Relations at the University of Southern California and founding director of the Wilson Center’s Latin American Program. He discusses a new report published by the Latin American Program and Wilson Center’s Venezuela Working Group titled, “Venezuela in 2023 and Beyond: Charting a New Course.” The report, “urges strong international support for negotiations between the Venezuelan authoritarian government and the democratic opposition and discusses the importance of the recently resumed negotiations in Mexico City for resolving Venezuela’s prolonged political crisis.”
