Venezuela to resume repatriation of migrants after deal with US, official says

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — Venezuela will once again accept repatriation flights from the United States carrying its deported nationals after reaching an agreement with the U.S., a Venezuelan official said on social media Saturday.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro suspended flights on March 8, after the U.S. Treasury Department announced the withdrawal of Chevron’s license to export Venezuelan oil.

“We have agreed with the U.S. government to resume the repatriation of Venezuelan migrants with an initial flight tomorrow, Sunday,” said Jorge Rodríguez, president of Venezuela’s Assembly and Maduro’s chief negotiator with the U.S.

Venezuela accepted the deal to guarantee the “the return of our compatriots to their nation with the safeguard of their Human Rights,” Rodríguez said.

In his statement, Rodríguez referred to the deportation by Donald Trump’s government of some 250 Venezuelans to a high-security prison in El Salvador.

“Migrating is not a crime and we will not rest until we achieve the return of all those who require it and until we rescue our brothers kidnapped in El Salvador,” Rodríguez said.

What's the Over/Under on a commie federal judge blocking the flight?

What is the loathsome turd Jimmy “DNC Terrorist” BiasedJerk up to today?

Is he still having a tantrum over Trump’s people turning off the money spigot to his wife and his daughter?

I guess Venezuela’s gang army told Maduro that they don’t want to do real hard time in El Salvador.

I may have asked this before, but will ask again. Can a country refuse to admit their own citizen? Suppose I go to a foreign land and get in some kind of jam there, can the US just refuse to re-admit me? That really doesn’t make a lot of sense to me tbh.
