Venezuelan Foreign Minister Delcy Rodríguez told the United Nations that the country will hold future elections, but she did not provide a specific date for when the vote will take place.

Rodríguez said Venezuela is “transitioning to full democracy,” emphasizing that the government is moving toward a more open political system.

She added that the authorities have opened a dialogue with opposition sectors, indicating a willingness to engage with groups that have previously been excluded from formal talks.

Venezuela has been in a prolonged political standoff, with opposition leaders and many international observers questioning the legitimacy of its electoral processes and the state of democratic institutions.

The lack of a concrete timetable for the promised elections leaves analysts and citizens awaiting further details, while the announced dialogue with the opposition marks a potential shift in the country’s approach to its internal political crisis.
