Venezuelan opposition politician Juan Pablo Guanipa has been released from jail after months in hiding and detention. A close ally of opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, Guanipa emphasized the need for truth in discussing Venezuela’s present and future. His release is part of a series of liberations by the government, following pressure from the United States to free political prisoners. The government denies holding political prisoners and has announced a proposed amnesty law for those jailed for political activities, which has passed an initial vote in the National Assembly.
