The prolonged crisis in Venezuela has been a central issue on the regional agenda, prompting contrasting diplomatic responses from neighboring countries. Argentina and Brazil, as South American powers, have adopted positions that reflect both their internal political dynamics and their views on democracy, human rights, and sovereignty. The differences in their approaches — ranging from open condemnation to calls for dialogue — have influenced regional efforts to address the Venezuelan situation and its broader repercussions.
This report presents key insights from the event "Venezuela in Focus: The Stance of Argentina and Brazil in Regional Geopolitics," held on June 18. The meeting brought together experts in diplomacy, regional politics, and governance to discuss the challenges and opportunities arising from the relationship between Argentina, Brazil, and the ongoing crisis in Venezuela.
