CARACAS - Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro did not inform Norway’s foreign ministry, which is mediating a dialogue between his government and opposition leader Juan Guaido, about a side deal with a smaller sector of the opposition before it was announced earlier this week, a member of Guaido’s negotiating team said on Wednesday.
The government responded on Monday by announcing a deal with smaller opposition parties to resolve the South American country’s deep political divide by reforming the National Electoral Commission, accused of bias in favor of the ruling socialists. That deal was not backed by Guaido’s allies. Venezuela’s political crisis deepened in January when Guaido invoked the constitution to assume a rival presidency, arguing Maduro’s May 2018 re-election was illegitimate. He has since been recognized as the rightful leader by more than 50 countries, including the United States.
