Uruguay's President-elect Yamandú Orsi did not rule out inviting Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro over to his inauguration during his first press conference after winning the runoff against Álvaro Delgado of the ruling Multicolor coalition. However, the former Mayor (Governor) of Canelones admitted some "diplomatic difficulties" with Caracas that he hoped to work out. In any case, he insisted that "relations are between States and not between presidents." At any rate, the issue "will be seen when the time comes," he added.
