The newly nominated foreign minister will take office on Tuesday. Felix Plasencia, the country's former foreign minister, will now be in charge of the country's international economic growth. His new position will be announced soon.

On another note, during an earlier visit of an Iranian team led by Oil Minister Javad Oji to Venezuela, the minister met separately with a number of high-ranking Venezuelan officials, including President Nicolas Maduro and First Vice President Delcy Rodriguez, to discuss the development of Tehran-Caracas bilateral relations, in addition to meeting and talking with Venezuelan Oil Minister Tareck Zaidan El Aissami, Shana news agency reported.
