(asked on 28th June 2022) - View Source

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they still recognise Juan Guaidó as the legitimate interim president of Venezuela; and if so, whether they consider the current occupants of the Venezuelan embassy and consulate in London to be legitimate.


This question was answered on 12th July 2022

We remain deeply concerned about the political situation in Venezuela, where multiple crises are afflicting its people. We continue to recognise Juan Guaidó as the interim constitutional president of Venezuela and continue in our efforts to support a return to democracy in Venezuela. While UK Government does not accept the legitimacy of the Maduro regime, we maintain limited engagement with regime officials where necessary.
