French President Emmanuel Macron has indicated he hopes the Paris Peace Forum, opening on Friday, will set the stage to relaunch the stalled dialogue between Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his opponents. The South American nation remains a key OPEC oil producer as countries weather the global energy crisis.
Macron hosted his Argentinian counterpart Alberto Fernandez and Colombian President Gustavo Petro late Friday afternoon in a meeting on the Venezuelan crisis during the fifth edition of the Paris Peace Forum.
