Laura Dogu, the newly appointed US charge d’affaires, has arrived in Venezuela. Her arrival comes a month after Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro was detained by US forces and transported to New York for trial.
Dogu is an experienced diplomat with proficiency in Spanish, tasked with managing US-Venezuela relations during this transitional period.
**Why this matters**
The deployment of a senior US diplomat signals a shift in diplomatic engagement with Venezuela after Maduro’s removal. Dogu’s presence may facilitate communication and negotiations between the two countries amid ongoing political changes.
