Chile has not had an ambassador in Caracas since 2018. The Executive of Boric, which has made public its criticism of Maduro for human rights violations, appoints a socialist and experienced politician as head of the mission.

Jaime Gazmuri is one of the most experienced figures of Chilean progressivism with broad ties to the Latin American left. He will arrive in Venezuela with a broad political management and deep knowledge of the left of the region to try to normalize diplomatic relations between the two countries.
