flag U.S. raised flag at Caracas embassy for first time since 2019 after Maduro’s capture, signaling normalized relations.

flag The U.S. raised its flag at the embassy in Caracas for the first time since 2019, marking a symbolic step in normalized diplomatic relations following the January 2026 capture of former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro by U.S. forces. flag The flag-raising on March 14, 2026, coincided with the seventh anniversary of the embassy’s closure and was announced by U.S. officials as the start of a “new era.” The move follows diplomatic outreach from the Trump administration and support for Maduro’s successor, acting President Delcy Rodríguez, who has engaged in negotiations with Washington. flag While some local residents welcomed the development as a sign of progress, others criticized U.S. military actions and growing American influence over Venezuela’s oil sector. flag The embassy remains partially operational, and broader diplomatic and economic implications are still unfolding.
