Brazil to Return Venezuelan Embassy Oversight to Argentina

Brazil to Return Venezuelan Embassy Oversight to Argentina

Brazil has been taking care of Argentina's embassy in Venezuela since 2024.

This happened because the Venezuelan president, Nicolas Maduro, asked Argentine diplomats to leave.

Now, Brazil has said it will give this responsibility back to Argentina.

This means Argentina will once again be in charge of its own embassy and consular services in Venezuela.

The Brazilian Foreign Ministry made this announcement on January 11, 2024.

It's an important step in diplomatic relations between these countries.
