Cabinet Reshuffle in Venezuela

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro recently announced a reshuffle of key government positions to tackle public service management challenges.

Since 2017, Jorge Márquez served as the Minister of the Presidency’s Office.

Now, he steps into his new role as the Sectoral Vice President of Public Works and Services and also takes on the responsibilities of Minister of Electrical Energy.

Márquez will now lead efforts to improve and stabilize Venezuela’s electrical system, marking a significant shift in administrative strategy.

Furthermore, Néstor Reverol transitions from his prior roles amidst periods of political and social unrest.

Maduro has named Reverol as the President of the Corporation for the Development of the Zuliana Region.

Here, he will focus on propelling regional development and enhancing infrastructure in Western Venezuela.

Additionally, Aníbal Coronado, a Rear Admiral, assumes the position of the new Minister of the Presidency’s Office.

They align with a wider strategy to restructure governmental operations for improved performance.

Thus, the reshuffle highlights an administrative pivot towards prioritizing infrastructural and regional development across Venezuela.
