Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has said that high-profile Venezuela-Russian Intergovernmental meeting would be held this April, adding that the sides plan to sign nearly 20 agreements in the spheres of economy, energy, trade and education.

"A high-level working session on intergovernmental cooperation between Russia and Venezuela will be held in April. We will sign more than 20 documents on cooperation in the field of economy, trade, energy, and education", Maduro said in an interview broadcasted by Channel One Russia on Wednesday.
Maduro also added Tuesday that Caracas awaits another delivery of the humanitarian aid from Moscow.
On 22 February, Caracas received around 7.5 tonnes of humanitarian cargo from Russia, including medicines, medical equipment and consumables under the programs of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Pan American Health Organization.

Caracas has accused Washington of standing behind the alleged attack on the power plant. The United States has, in turn, refuted the accusations.
