CARACAS: The U.S. special envoy for Venezuela, Elliott Abrams, recently met secretly with the Foreign Minister of Venezuela, according to reports.
Citing President Nicolas Maduro and a senior Venezuelan official, the Associated Press said Venezuela’s Foreign Minister, Jorge Arreaza, met twice with Abrams in New York for hours and invited him to come to Venezuela “privately or publicly,” Maduro said in an interview.
The US has backed opposition leader Juan Guaido, who last month assumed the presidency on promises to end a humanitarian crisis in the country. ()Agencies)
