Orlando Gómez again representative in Venezuela
On May 20, the regime notified that Gómez Zamora had been removed from his position as Nicaraguan ambassador to Venezuela to become the representative of his ally China.
Gómez held his position in Venezuela for only two months, but has been characterized as a defender of Daniel Ortega, which has earned him various diplomatic positions in recent years.
However, on July 28, the Ortega regime appointed Gómez Zamora as Minister Counselor with consular functions at the Venezuelan Embassy, dismissing María Isabel Martínez Chavarría, who held the position of ambassador to the administration of Nicolás Maduro for more than two months. .
