Putin's Strategic Ties with Venezuela Amidst Diplomatic Dynamics

Russian President Vladimir Putin does not plan to contact Venezuela's interim President Delcy Rodriguez, but could do so if needed. Russia maintains regular diplomatic contact with Venezuela and has developed close ties with Caracas, especially with President Nicolas Maduro, who faces charges in the U.S.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov announced that Russian President Vladimir Putin currently has no plans to speak with Venezuela's interim President Delcy Rodriguez, but emphasized that communication could occur rapidly if necessary.

Despite not scheduling immediate talks, Russia and Venezuela are maintaining ongoing diplomatic interactions according to Peskov.

Moscow has reinforced its partnership with Caracas over the years. This relationship has intensified with President Nicolas Maduro's recent legal issues in the U.S., where he faces contested drug charges.
