This article examines the evolution of both domestic and foreign political life of Venezuela between October 2023 and February 2024. Some important events and developments, which, in our opinion, are worth analyzing, occurred at this time not on their own but under the influence of a number of internal (subjective) and external (objective) factors. In our opinion, internal ones should include, first of all, the extremely unfavorable economic situation that has developed in the country. One of the important external factors is the constant pressure exerted by the United States, which seriously affects the state of affairs in Venezuela. Another aspect of that nature is the negative environment in world energy prices that developed in the middle of the second decade of the 21st century. Particularly noteworthy are the policies of Nicolas Maduro’s cabinet related to the primaries held by the opposition in October 2023, sanctions pressure, as well as some relevant issues related to the new dimensions of the existing border conflict between Venezuela and Guyana around the oil-bearing Essequibo region.
