She pointed out that the Venezuelan people had begun to take steps to resolve issues based on the principles of inclusiveness and consent. “We would like to call on our colleagues in the US administration to be realistic in assessing the situation,” Zakharova said. “There is a need to assist efforts to expand the national dialogue, boosting the emerging process of national reconciliation guided by the Venezuelan people,” she added.
In May, Oslo hosted several rounds of indirect talks between the Venezuelan government and the opposition, brokered by Norway. The latest round of consultations took place in Barbados in July.
On September 15, the Venezuelan government and some opposition members agreed to establish a national council for dialogue for the parties to hold talks on a wide range of issues. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro announced later that the country’s authorities were ready to resume the Norway-brokered talks any time.
