Venezuela says U.S. unilaterally suspended migrant repatriation flights
Read Original Source
Venezuela said the U.S. has unilaterally suspended its migrant repatriation flights and seeks to "undermine the sovereignty of its airspace," after President Donald Trump posted on social media that the country's airspace should be considered as "closed in its entirety." In a statement released Saturday — in response to the message posted earlier by Mr. Trump — Venezuela's government demanded "unrestricted respect" for its airspace.

- The dispute comes as the U.S. increases military pressure on Venezuela and faces new oversight questions over strikes in the region.
