The announcement comes days after the inauguration of Colombian President Gustavo Petro, who has expressed his intention to normalize diplomatic relations with Venezuela, broken since 2019.
"Venezuela asked for the approval of Colombia's Foreign Ministry and soon Ambassador Felix Plasencia will be in Bogota, a man of great diplomatic experience," Maduro said.The Venezuelan leader added that Vice President Delcy Rodriguez will be in charge of designing a plan to reopen Venezuela's border with Colombia and boost trade and investment with its neighbor, without giving details.
