Venezuela leadership negotiations to resume this week

WASHINGTON (AP) — A diplomat who represents Venezuela’s opposition leader in Washington says talks on ending the political impasse in the South American country will resume again this week.
Carlos Vecchio, who represents opposition leader Juan Guaidó, did not give a day or location for the talks with representatives of embattled President Nicolas Maduro. Vecchio said in a speech Tuesday in Washington that he is hopeful that talks will resolve the crisis by year’s end.
