El BCIE frente a la rendición de cuentas en Centroamérica
El nombramiento del nuevo presidente del Banco Centroamericano de Integración Económica (BCIE) es de vital importancia para la democracia y el desarrollo de la región.

A Golden Bridge for the Maduro Government
As Venezuela’s presidential elections, scheduled for 2024, draw closer, the international community’s attention is primarily focused on how to use leverage to ensure minimal electoral conditions. US high-level officials have publicly said they would ease some of the economic and political sanctions imposed on the country in exchange for meaningful concessions by Nicolas Maduro’s government, and there is clearly an ongoing back channel between US and Venezuelan authorities along these lines. While this discussion is essential, it often overshadows a vital aspect of the conversation—the plan for what comes next.
