In a 'unilateral peace gesture' following Nicolás Maduro's ouster, Venezuelan interim leader Delcy Rodríguez ordered the release of five Spanish nationals previously highlighted in diplomatic efforts—including two Basques, a Canary Islander sailor, a Valencian resident, and a Spanish-Venezuelan activist—who are now en route to Spain.
An opinion piece in Havana Times speculates on the possibility of a political transition in Cuba inspired by recent events in Venezuela, where former Vice President Delcy Rodríguez leads a change following the capture of Nicolás Maduro. The text highlights Cuba's economic crisis and US pressures as potential catalysts. It mentions that Washington seeks an internal interlocutor to facilitate reforms.
