Who decides when a country is ready for free elections? Three months since Maduro's removal: 670 political prisoners freed. Oil flowing. Embassy reopened. But Cabello remains. The security apparatus...

Very true! I wrote down some points of what I want to see
- Delcy have a date to leave
- Delcy held accountable for destruction of the homes of opposition leaders (and hopefully pets returned) Opposition leaders given tools to rebuild and return
- We also need to see that action condemned on international platforms
- The propaganda apparatus weakening, and cross opposition defense (Maria Corina vocally defending Guaido and his innocence, etc)
- Freedom for all political prisoners
- an end to the "forgetting" (a few years ago isn't ancient history) and including all the opposition leaders and the full decades of struggle instead of just a few years.

In addition, Delcy already crossed a major red line in early March in retailiation against dissidents in forced exile.
This is a sign Delcy will not work with US interests.
We need steps to hold Delcy accountable, and tools for dissidents to return home from exile and rebuild.

The normalization is alarming. Her robbing the house of one of the most prominent opposition leaders, stealing his dogs (praying for a miracle that they are alive), and leaders in exile are not normal but violations of human rights.
For a true democratic transition in Venezuela, homes need to be rebuilt, stolen belongings and rights must be returned, and exiled leaders need to return.
