Brazil Sends Ambassador Glivânia Maria de Oliveira to Maduro's Inauguration Amid Election Dispute
Jan 2, 2025, 08:38 PM
The Brazilian government, under President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, has decided to send a representative to the inauguration of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on January 10. Despite not recognizing Maduro's victory in the July 2024 election due to the lack of published voting records, Brazil will be represented by its ambassador to Venezuela, Glivânia Maria de Oliveira. This decision reflects Brazil's intention to maintain diplomatic channels with Venezuela, despite the strained relations following the contested election. The opposition in Venezuela claims that Edmundo González won the election and has fled to Spain to avoid arrest. Several Latin American countries, including Argentina and Peru, recognize González as the rightful winner, while Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia await proof of Maduro's victory. The presence of the ambassador at the inauguration is seen as a move to keep dialogue open with Venezuelan authorities, considering the shared border and regional interests.
