  • Venezuela's interim government and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) discussed technical assistance and resuming consultations.
  • The meeting in Washington included Venezuela's Vice President of Economy and the President of the Central Bank.
  • The discussions aimed to define new mechanisms for technical cooperation between the two parties.

Venezuela's interim government held discussions with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in Washington regarding technical assistance and the resumption of consultations. The Venezuelan delegation was led by Calixto Ortega, the sector vice president for Economy, and Luis Pérez, president of the Central Bank of Venezuela.

They met with IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva to establish new frameworks for technical cooperation. These talks signal a potential step towards renewed engagement between Venezuela and the international financial institution, which has been limited due to the country's political and economic crisis.

The focus on technical assistance suggests an effort to address specific economic challenges and potentially rebuild institutional capacity. The outcome of these discussions could influence future financial support and economic policy dialogue.
