Visual guide: Venezuela · transition measures. White House and the linked official records supply the evidence below. This diagram is not a photograph, chronology of legal effect or measure of success.
Context & scope
The White House reports reconciliation talks, judicial reform and political-prisoner releases, then describes elections as a future possibility. These accounts do not establish completed elections or democratic transfer.
Goal
Assess political freedom and accountable institutions through reconciliation, judicial reform and political-prisoner releases.
The August 31 White House account reports talks between interim authorities and the 2015 National Assembly, judicial reforms and prisoner releases alongside its oil-agreement announcement.
The White House reports transition measures; its September 2 follow-up describes elections as a future possibility supported by economic stabilization. Neither account establishes completed elections, a verified transfer of power or durable democratic institutions.
A complete prisoner ledger is not independently verified in the fact sheet. Oil rights and expected investment cannot substitute for evidence of civil rights and continuing political freedom.
