Brief
Delegations representing Delcy Rodríguez’s interim government and the 2015 National Assembly concluded the second round of talks with agreements concerning the renewal of Venezuela’s Supreme Court and the removal of restrictions on digital media. The parties also appointed a council of legal experts to examine the credentials of candidates seeking seats on the court. The next test is whether these commitments produce transparent appointments and restored access to blocked news platforms.
Supreme Court appointments directly shape perceptions of judicial independence, contract enforcement and political checks—core inputs in pricing Venezuelan risk. Agreement across the negotiating parties is a potentially constructive signal, but its investment relevance depends on how candidates are vetted and whether the media commitments are implemented.
