Delsa Solórzano, president of Encuentro Ciudadano, has made her first public appearance following a period of being under protection. During an interview with journalist Román Lozinski, Solórzano announced that the Plataforma Unitaria Democrática (PUD) is preparing to release a new political roadmap.
Strategic Coordination in Panama
The announcement follows a recent meeting in Panama where Solórzano met with María Corina Machado and other representatives of the democratic alliance. This gathering was intended to advance a common strategy and strengthen the roadmap aimed at a democratic transition in Venezuela.
“No quiero adelantarme porque el documento aún no sale; estamos esperando que termine la gira para publicarlo. Lo más importante es el reencuentro y el compromiso unitario, porque sin unidad no hay libertad y todos debemos aportar. La hoja de ruta de la plataforma unitaria ya fue suscrita y debemos ampliarla a otros sectores, escuchando a todos,” Solórzano stated.
Did You Know? The PUD’s transition proposal includes the designation of an independent National Electoral Council and the lifting of political disqualifications.
The Existing Transition Framework
The PUD previously presented a formal proposal for political transition in April. This document outlines a three-stage process designed to facilitate a change in the country’s political landscape.

The proposed stages include:
The restitution of constitutional guarantees, the release of political prisoners, the cessation of persecution, and the recovery of institutional autonomy.
A focus on economic recovery and national reconciliation.
The organization of free and competitive elections with both national and international recognition.
Expert Insight: The coordination between opposition leaders in Panama suggests a concerted effort to present a unified front. The success of this strategy may depend on the ability to expand the existing roadmap to include other sectors of society to build a broader consensus.
Implications and Next Steps
The return to public activity by Solórzano is viewed as a response to the current circumstances in Venezuela, which she suggests require increased participation from democratic leaders. The coalition has emphasized that maintaining coordination among various opposition forces is essential for political change.
Following the conclusion of the current tour and the finalization of consultations and agreements from the Panama meeting, the specific details of the new political roadmap may be released to the public.
