CARACAS: The government of President Nicolas Maduro on Friday thanked Norway for its mediation efforts to build a"dialogue" with the Venezuelan opposition after both sides sent delegations to Oslo.
The mediation bid comes after a months-long power struggle between National Assembly leader Juan Guaido and the socialist president, with sometimes deadly street clashes. So far details of the exact process underway in Oslo have been scant, but US-backed opposition leader Guaido - recognized as interim president by dozens of countries - denied on Thursday that any direct negotiations had taken place.Norway's foreign ministry said in a statement it had had"preliminary contacts with representatives of the main political actors of Venezuela."
Rodriguez and Miranda state governor Hector Rodriguez represented the regime in the discussions, according to media reports.
