Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken spoke with Colombian Foreign Minister Luis Gilberto Murillo today and thanked him for Colombia’s efforts to facilitate dialogue toward a return to democracy in Venezuela. Secretary Blinken and Foreign Minister Murillo discussed the need for electoral authorities in Venezuela to publish transparent, polling station-level results for the July 28 presidential election, and for security forces to refrain from violating Venezuelans’ human rights and freedom of expression. The Secretary and Foreign Minister also discussed the importance of the region speaking with one voice, including at the Organization of American States, to further pressure Venezuela to return to a democratic path.
