The government of the president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, and the opposition will meet again on Friday in Mexico

Caracas, September 1 (RHC)-- The government of the president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, and the opposition will meet again on Friday in Mexico, in the resumption of the dialogue table that both parties installed in August.

The president of the National Assembly of Venezuela, Jorge Rodríguez, reported on Tuesday that "next Friday, September 3, at three o'clock in the afternoon, the first deliberation between the delegation of nine members of the Bolivarian Government and the representatives of the opposition sector will be installed in Mexico."

Rodriguez, who heads the governmental commission in the dialogue, qualified as an achievement that the radical opposition, after so many calls for invasions, coercive measures, sanctions, blockades, assumes that there is no other way than the constitutional and democratic one.

The Government and the Venezuelan opposition, with the mediation of Norway and Mexico, initiated this dialogue table last August, in which, as a first agreement, they signed a memorandum of understanding between the parties.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, for his part, announced on Tuesday that at the dialogue table with the opposition, which resumes on Friday, they will demand the return of several of their assets abroad and the lifting of unilateral coercive measures.

"It is time to recover all the resources that have been stolen from Venezuela in this irresponsible political game, without forgetting, but with forgiveness.  That is why Venezuela will present in Mexico, before the round of negotiations with the opposition, a firm petition," said the President.

He stressed that the proposal to be presented contains "all the economic demands for the recovery of the country's economy and for the return of the gold sequestered in the Bank of England, the return of all bank accounts and the lifting of all sanctions against Petróleos de Venezuela".

The head of State denounced that the coercive measures applied by the United States and the European Union (EU) have cost the South American country the blockade of approximately 8,000,000,000,000 dollars.
