Venezuela's Vice President recently declared intentions to cooperate with the United States. This comes amidst mounting economic and political pressure faced by Venezuela. While the specifics of this cooperation are yet to be revealed, it is seen as a major shift in Venezuela's historically tense relations with the U.S.

As one of the main trade partners and international collaborators of the United States, Japan is keenly interested in the dynamics of global politics that could potentially influence these ties. Moreover, Japan itself has had trade relations with Venezuela in the oil industry, thus, any shift in Venezuela's foreign policy could impact Japan’s economic and diplomatic strategies.

In comparison, the U.S and EU often stringently scrutinize international alliances and moves, especially with nations like Venezuela, which have a complex political history. Any change in the political stance of Venezuela might prompt a reevaluation of policy or even an important political dialogue within these regions.
