Jorge Rodríguez Re-Elected as Venezuelan Assembly President for Fifth Year by Clear Majority
Jan 5, 2025, 06:42 PM
The Venezuelan National Assembly has ratified its leadership for the 2025-2026 legislative term, with Jorge Rodríguez re-elected as president for the fifth consecutive year by a clear majority at the Palacio Federal. The new board includes Pedro Infante as First Vice President and América Pérez as Second Vice President. The ratification occurred during the Assembly's inaugural session for the legislative period, which also involved ceremonial acts such as a tribute to Simón Bolívar. Rodríguez emphasized the Assembly's commitment to sovereignty and peace, pledging to counter extremism. Additionally, Rodríguez announced plans to declare several former Latin American presidents, including Felipe Calderón and Vicente Fox of Mexico, as "personas non grata," citing their unauthorized attempts to enter Venezuela. This decision aligns with the Assembly's stance on defending national sovereignty. The session also reaffirmed the invitation to President Nicolás Maduro to be sworn in for his next term on January 10, 2025.
