Britain said today (15 September) it would upgrade its diplomatic relations with Venezuela, appointing an ambassador to the country, in a move which it said would strengthen its ability to play a role in supporting a transition to democracy.
"This decision is part of a broader international reengagement," the government said in a written statement to parliament.
"This approach does not represent any change in the UK's assessment of recent electoral processes, including those held in 2024, nor does it signify endorsement of any party. The UK's longstanding position is to recognise States, not governments."
