Do not travel to or remain in Venezuela due to the high risk of wrongful detention, torture in detention, terrorism, kidnapping, arbitrary enforcement of local laws, crime, civil unrest, and poor health infrastructure.

Yes, that’s extremely obvious, you couldn’t make me go to the Unit- wait, we’re talking about the US here, right?

Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela

Statement

The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela categorically rejects the new travel alert issued by the United States Department of State, a hostile act laden with cynicism, racism, and political propaganda, which seeks to fuel the campaign of permanent aggression against our country.

While it attempts to discredit Venezuela with unfounded accusations, it is the US government itself that kidnaps, imprisons, and disappears migrants, including Venezuelan children like Maikelys Antonella Espinoza Bernal, held on its southern border without justification or official response, with the clear objective of using her as a political hostage in favor of the Venezuelan far right.

The United States lacks the moral authority to speak of human rights. The images of children in cages, mothers separated from their children, arbitrary deportations, and detention centers reminiscent of concentration camps continue to shock the world. Added to this are racist laws, police brutality, and crimes against Venezuelan workers, such as those kidnapped in El Salvador, subjected to inhumane treatment

This alert does not seek to protect anyone: it is a tool of psychological warfare and disinformation, part of the interventionist script of Washington and its local lackeys.

Venezuela is a country of peace. Those who wish to visit us with respect and a spirit of brotherhood will always find the doors of a dignified, sovereign, and revolutionary people open.

Caracas, May 12, 2025

I put the Venezuela Foreign Ministry statement through a translator. It’s pretty solid criticism of the US: racism, disappearing migrants, children in cages, child separation, migrant concentration camps, racist laws, police brutality, El Salvador.

I think Venezuela is right to interpret the travel advisory as a threat. Trump tried to coup Venezuela in his first term. This seems like an indicator that he may try again.

I’d be much more likely to write a will if I had to travel to the US than Venezuela.

DO NOT TRAVEL TO VUVUZELLA describes the US

At least if I go to Venezuela, I know I won’t get sent to Salvadoran concentration camp. Can’t say the same for amerikkka.

Fuck, I want to go there now.

What I’m hearing is we should all go to Venezuela

EAIAC

they really didn’t need to warn us, I already know not to go back to the stars and stripes
