Argentina and Brazil agree to mediate in Venezuela crisis [View all]

Brazil and Argentina will work together to help find a solution to Venezuela's political crisis, Brazil's acting foreign minister said Monday.

Venezuela is facing a severe economic crisis, with the world's highest inflation and shortages. Polls indicate most Venezuelans want President Nicolas Maduro out of office.

"We're on alert when it comes to Venezuela. Brazil and Argentina have an interest that includes mediation," Brazilian Foreign Minister Jose Serra said at a news conference after meeting with Argentine President Mauricio Macri.

It was Serra's first official trip since being appointed after Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff was suspended pending an impeachment trial.
