卢比奥公开支持委内瑞拉反对派谈判代表菲格拉：司法改革先行，下一步议程指向选举委员会改革
加拉加斯——美国国务卿卢比奥在华盛顿会见委内瑞拉反对派首席谈判代表迪诺拉·菲格拉后，公开表态支持委内瑞拉政府与反对派之间的对话。据委内瑞拉分析网站（Venezuelanalysis）10月12日报道，卢比奥称这场谈判是委内瑞拉近一代人以来的最佳机会，过程固然艰难，但获得特朗普政府最高层的百分之百支持。他强调，华盛顿的目标不只是让委内瑞拉举行选举，而是建立能支撑长期稳定的民主制度。
菲格拉是2015年当选的委内瑞拉国民议会的主席，该议会任期虽已结束，但一直获美国承认为委内瑞拉合法权力机构。她表示，反对派致力于恢复公共权力机构的制度框架，包括最高法院与全国选举委员会，为保障政治与公民权利、实现和解创造空间，并感谢美国在石油部门的投资。双方是在1月3日美军抓捕马杜罗之后形成的政治过渡框架下谈判的。
据报道，对话已就修改最高法院组织法达成一致：司法提名委员会将由12名公民社会代表与11名议员组成，公民社会占多数；已有127名公民申请加入该委员会。委员会成立后将启动最高法院法官候选人的申请程序，谈判代表团呼吁委内瑞拉最优秀的法律人参选六个审判庭的职位。卢比奥表示，未来轮次的讨论将处理全国选举委员会的改革。
两方还同意共同要求释放英格兰银行自2019年起扣留的31吨委内瑞拉黄金，以用于震后重建，价值超过40亿美元；据报道，这批黄金将转至纽约联邦储备银行，其使用须经美国批准与国际审计。委内瑞拉政府代表团尚未就华盛顿对反对派谈判方的公开支持发表评论。选举日期仍是分歧核心：部分反对派要求尽快定下总统选举日期，谈判方则主张司法改革是必要的前置步骤。

Rubio Backs Opposition Negotiator Figuera as Venezuela Dialogue Advances: Court Reform First, Electoral Council Next
CARACAS - U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio hosted Venezuelan opposition lead negotiator Dinorah Figuera at the State Department and publicly backed the ongoing dialogue with the Venezuelan government. Venezuelanalysis reported on October 12 that Rubio called the talks the best opportunity Venezuela has had in almost a generation - a difficult process enjoying 100 percent support from the highest levels of the Trump administration. Washington's goal, he said, goes beyond holding an election, to building the institutions needed for long-term stability, prosperity and freedom.
Figuera presides over the National Assembly elected in 2015, whose term expired in 2021 but which the United States continued to recognise as Venezuela's legitimate authority. She said the opposition is committed to restoring the institutional framework of the public powers - the Supreme Court (TSJ) and the National Electoral Council (CNE) - guaranteeing political and civil rights and creating space for reunion and reconciliation, and she thanked Washington for investment in the oil sector. The talks sit inside the political transition framework formed after U.S. forces seized Nicolas Maduro on January 3.
Under an amendment to the Supreme Court's organic law negotiated at the dialogue table, the Judicial Nominations Committee will have a majority of 12 civil-society representatives against 11 lawmakers, and 127 citizens have applied to join the body. Once appointed, the committee will open applications for Supreme Court seats across its six chambers, and negotiators invited Venezuela's best legal professionals to apply. Rubio said future rounds will address reform of the National Electoral Council.
The two sides also agreed to jointly demand the release of 31 tonnes of Venezuelan gold held by the Bank of England since 2019, worth more than $4 billion, to address post-earthquake reconstruction; the gold would reportedly move to the New York Federal Reserve, with spending subject to U.S. approval and international auditing. The Venezuelan government's delegation has not commented on Washington's explicit backing for the opposition negotiators. The election date remains the core dispute: some opposition sectors demand a date for presidential elections now, while the negotiating delegation argues judicial reform is a necessary prior step.
