    EU’s Kallas says will propose to lift sanctions on Venezuela’s Delcy Rodriguez

    -

    BRUSSELS, Feb ‌23 (Reuters) - European Union's ​foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas ⁠said on Monday that she will propose that the ​bloc lifts sanctions on Venezuela's ‌interim president, Delcy Rodriguez, after lawmakers in the South American ⁠country last week ⁠approved a limited amnesty bill for certain prisoners.

    "I will propose that we will ‌lift the sanctions on Delcy ⁠Rodriguez as, the ‌current ... interim president ​in office. Whether we have consensus then we ‌will see. We ​don't know ⁠that yet," Kallas told reporters.

    Friday, ‌Spain's Foreign ⁠Minister Jose Manuel Albares had urged the EU to ​proceed with ‌that move.
