NEW YORK CITY - Representatives from the Biden and Maduro administrations secretly met in Mexico this week to continue negotiations regarding Democratic processes. The rendezvous comes as the deadline to reimpose more sanctions on the South American country by the U.S. government nears.
Among the discussed topics were the upcoming Venezuelan elections. Despite promises of a free and fair race from Venezuela as part of last year's Barbados Agreement, the recent barring of Maria Corina Machado, opposition favorite, and her substitute, Corina Yoris, has raised many eyebrows and put the U.S in an "uncomfortable situation," Bloomberg reported.
