CARACAS, Oct 21 ― After two years of mudslinging and ruptured ties, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said yesterday it was necessary to repair diplomatic relations with Colombia.

The Venezuelan president, who on other occasions has shown the intention to reestablish relations with the neighbouring country, referred to a letter from the Colombian Senate released by National Assembly head Jorge Rodriguez. It proposed creating binational commissions to re-establish trade between both countries.

In response to Duque government's aiding the Venezuelan opposition's efforts to bring humanitarian aid into the country, Maduro suspended diplomatic relations with Colombia in February 2019, giving Colombian officials a 24-hour deadline to leave.
