31+ min ago (285+ words) Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has accused the US of making a "colonial threat" to his nation after President Trump called for the closing of the airspace above the socialist state. The country's government said it "forcefully rejects" Trump's claim about closing the airspace, branding it an attempt to undermine Venezuela's "territorial integrity, aeronautical security and full sovereignty," according to a statement from its Foreign Ministry Saturday. "Such declarations constitute a hostile, unilateral and arbitrary act," the statement continued. The leftist leadership was speaking after President Trump stepped up pressure on the Caracas regime in a post on his Truth Social platform.

43+ min ago (364+ words) On 29 November 2025, Donald Trump posted a one-line message telling "airlines, pilots, drug dealers and human traffickers" to treat the airspace over and around Venezuela as completely closed. It was not a formal legal order, but it landed on top of weeks of mounting warnings that had already pushed commercial pilots to steer clear. Days earlier, the US Federal Aviation Administration had urged American airlines to avoid Venezuelan skies because of heavy military activity, GPS interference and an unpredictable security situation. Spain and Portugal issued similar alerts. On 26 November, Venezuela's aviation authority retaliated by revoking the permissions of several foreign airlines that suspended flights to Caracas, accusing them of joining "state terrorism" encouraged by Washington. Open any flight-tracking app now and Venezuela looks like a hole in the map. Planes between Europe, the Caribbean and Brazil bend around its borders instead…...
