Career

In 2009, he was one of the members of the Venezuelan diplomatic corps that were given persona non grata while he was consul in Houston in response to a similar measure approved during the Hugo Chavez government against US diplomats in Venezuela.

In November 2017, eight days before the arrest of the president and five other directors of the subsidiary, José Ángel Pereira Ruimwyk, he was appointed as vice president of administration and finance of Citgo, having joined the company only a couple of months ago. According to an investigation carried out by the journalist Maibort Petit, in the designation the requirements demanded by the United States government to the companies for the approval of the L1 visas, related to the transfers of transnational executives, were violated.[3][4]

In May 2018, the United States rejected the re-entry of Calixto Ortega into its territory, alleging irregularities in his L1 visa, after having traveled to Venezuela to participate in the 2018 presidential elections, causing him to leave the vice presidency of Citgo.[3][4]
