Venezuela's interim president, Delcy Rodriguez, said she welcomed the new US top diplomat in the country, John Barrett. “Venezuela welcomed him, and they expected this cooperation to be a win-win for both countries," she said.

The new head of the US diplomatic mission in Venezuela, John Barrett, arrived in the country on Thursday, continuing a process of normalizing relations following the ouster of Nicolas Maduro. Rodriguez has pushed through reforms allowing more private and foreign investment in the oil and mining sectors, a key US demand, along with an amnesty for political prisoners.
