Israel, Venezuela restore formal ties after 17-year break
Agreement creates consular channels for citizens in both countries and extends post-earthquake cooperation with Caracas; Netanyahu hails Colombia’s Golan recognition but omits mention of its deadly 7.4-magnitude quake
Israel and Venezuela have agreed to restore formal ties, including establishing a consular mechanism and continuing technical cooperation, after a 17-year break. This agreement follows recent talks between Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar and Venezuelan Foreign Minister Félix Plasencia. The two nations will provide consular services to their respective citizens and maintain cooperation on emergency and reconstruction efforts following recent earthquakes in Venezuela, where an Israeli aid delegation had previously assisted. The joint statement also highlighted the importance of Israel’s relationship with Venezuela’s Jewish community.
