Maduro meets with opposition governors sworn in before ANC assembly

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Tuesday met with three of the four opposition governors who on Monday took their oaths of office before the Constituent National Assembly (ANC), an overarching legislative body comprised solely of government-supporting lawmakers and thus considered to be illegitimate by a sizable portion of the international community.

"It was a cordial, positive meeting," said Maduro after the get-together with the governors at Miraflores presidential palace, adding that the meeting and the relationship he has established with those opposition officials is translating into "a consolidation of Venezuelan democracy."
