Since March 2019, U.S. diplomatic engagement with Venezuela has been carried out through the Venezuela Affairs Unit (VAU), the interim diplomatic office of the U.S. Government to Venezuela, located at the U.S. Embassy in Bogotá, Colombia. Today, we are formally resuming operations at the U.S. Embassy in Caracas, marking a new chapter in our diplomatic presence in Venezuela.

In January, Ambassador Laura F. Dogu arrived in Caracas to lead the U.S. government's efforts on the ground in Venezuela as Charge d'Affaires. Ambassador Dogu's team is restoring the chancery building at the U.S. Embassy in Caracas to prepare for the full return of personnel as soon as possible and the eventual resumption of consular services. The resumption of operations at U.S. Embassy Caracas is a key milestone in implementing the President's three‐phase plan for Venezuela and will strengthen our ability to engage directly with Venezuela's interim government, civil society, and the private sector.
