Venezuela has decided to reinstate repatriation flights for its citizens deported by U.S. immigration authorities, with flights set to commence soon. Venezuelan officials, including Jorge Rodriguez, emphasized that migration shouldn't be seen as a crime and committed to ensuring the return of their citizens. This announcement comes after previous deportations raised concerns, especially regarding some Venezuelans' ties to alleged gang activities. Amidst negotiations with U.S. officials, this development reflects ongoing tensions between the two nations regarding immigration policies and the treatment of Venezuelan migrants.
"Migration is not a crime," he added. Rodriguez, who has been negotiating with U.S. officials on immigration issues, said Venezuelan authorities "will not rest" until they secure the return of any citizens who require it.
A total of 238 Venezuelans were deported in that operation, which remains under scrutiny by a federal judge who had attempted to block the deportation flights and continues to seek information from the Trump administration about why they went ahead.
