Venezuela’s opposition leadership has indicated a shift in tone toward the United States, signalling a readiness to engage with Washington even as debate continues over the likelihood of future US intervention in the country.
In comments reported by international media, the opposition’s interim leader said cooperation with the US would be pursued where it could help address Venezuela’s political and economic crisis. The remarks mark a contrast with earlier, more confrontational language and appear aimed at maintaining international support while reducing fears of foreign military involvement.
Analysis suggests that while a direct US-led intervention in Venezuela now appears less likely than in the past, the possibility has not been completely ruled out. US actions against the government of President Nicolás Maduro, including legal and diplomatic pressure, continue to shape perceptions in Caracas and among regional governments.
The Venezuelan government has long accused opposition figures of colluding with foreign powers, a claim opposition leaders deny. They argue that international engagement is necessary to restore democratic processes and address humanitarian challenges facing the country.
Observers note that the evolving rhetoric reflects a delicate balancing act for Venezuela’s opposition: seeking external backing without reinforcing government narratives of foreign interference. As diplomatic efforts continue, uncertainty remains over how US policy toward Venezuela will develop in the months ahead.
