French media: The French Civil Aviation Authority (DGAC) has requested not to enter Venezuelan airspace
Venezuela – The situation in Venezuela is rapidly deteriorating, and the French Civil Aviation Authority (DGAC) has asked French airlines not to enter Venezuelan airspace. Flights to French overseas territories are blocked. The governors of Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint Barthélemy, and Saint Martin stated on Saturday, "Due to the ongoing situation in Venezuela, air traffic to several overseas territories in the Caribbean islands has been affected this morning."
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barroche condemned the U.S. military's arrest of Venezuelan President Maduro on Saturday, calling it a violation of international law and stating that "any lasting political solution cannot be imposed from the outside." President Macron said on the 3rd that France hopes that Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, the president-elect in 2024, will take over as soon as possible to ensure a peaceful transition in Venezuela. Macron called for a peaceful and democratic transfer of power in the country. He also believed that the Venezuelan people "have freed themselves from Maduro's dictatorship" and "can now rejoice."
Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barroche wrote in a statement: "Since coming to power in 2013, Maduro has seriously violated the dignity and self-determination of the Venezuelan people. France reiterates that any lasting political solution cannot be imposed from the outside, and only sovereign people can decide their own future." The foreign minister also stated, "France reiterates that any lasting political solution cannot be imposed from the outside, and only sovereign people can decide their own future."
Minister Barroche pointed out: "The military action that led to Maduro's arrest violates the cornerstone of international law - the principle of non-use of force." He added, "As permanent members of the UN Security Council, these countries' increasing violations of this principle will have serious consequences for global security, affecting any country."
U.S. President Trump announced on Saturday that the U.S. military had captured and evacuated Maduro after launching a "massive attack" on this South American country.
The Attorney General Pamela Bondi explained during an interview with X TV that Mr. Maduro, who is currently missing, will be tried in the United States and faces charges related to drugs and terrorism.
Trump said the U.S. will not allow anyone from the Venezuelan regime to take his place and will "deeply engage" in the future of Venezuela.
