Venezuela readying return to Mexico-based talks with opposition -sources

Venezuela's government is set to approve a return to Mexico-based negotiations with the country's political opposition, almost a year after the last meeting, six sources with knowledge of the matter said in recent days. The talks between President Nicolas Maduro's government and the opposition are meant to find solutions to Venezuela's long-running political and economic crisis. The opposition will repeat its long-standing petition for release of political prisoners and guarantees for an election slated for 2024, two sources close to preparations for the talks said.
