Venezuela: Opposition Talks Resume

Venezuela’s opposition resumed negotiations with the government on Tuesday, despite rising doubts that the talks will produce a political opening. The opposition wants President Nicolás Maduro’s government to free jailed opponents and create an independent truth commission to determine responsibility for 41 deaths tied to protests that have rocked the nation since February. Despite Mr. Maduro’s more conciliatory tone in public, his government has shown no sign of making any broad concessions.
