The announcement, made on October 14, 2025, is part of a "strategic reallocation of resources" that also involves closing Venezuelan embassies in Norway and Australia.
Strategic partners: The Venezuelan government described Burkina Faso and Zimbabwe—where another embassy is set to open—as "two sister nations, strategic allies in the anti-colonial fight and in the resistance against hegemonic pressures".
Timing: The announcement came shortly after Venezuelan opposition leader MarÃa Corina Machado was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, Norway.
Another example of how politicised the Nobel peace prize has become. Focus on cooperation: The new diplomatic missions are expected to boost cooperation in several areas, including agriculture, energy, education, and mining. Africa Stand Up.
