The People’s Power Ministry for Foreign Relations of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and the European External Action Service inform the international community that today, the Minister of People’s Power for Foreign Relations of Venezuela, Jorge Arreaza, and the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, held a telephone conversation in which they agreed on the need to keep the framework of diplomatic relations, especially at times when cooperation between both parties can pave the path for political dialogue.
Consequently, the Venezuelan Government decided to rescind the decision taken on June 29th, 2020, by which Ambassador Isabel Brilhante Pedrosa, Head of the European Union Delegation in Caracas, was declared persona non grata.
Both agreed to promote diplomatic contacts between the Parties at the highest level, within the framework of honest cooperation and respect for International Law.
