Individuals Sheltered in the Argentine Embassy in Caracas, Venezuela
Press Statement
December 11, 2024
The United States condemns in the strongest terms the continued refusal by Nicolás Maduro and his representatives to grant safe passage to the individuals sheltered inside the Embassy of the Republic of Argentina, currently under Brazilian custody, in Caracas, Venezuela.
The United States takes very seriously the obligation under international law to respect the rights of diplomatic missions. The continued harassment endangers the safety of the mission and individuals who may be seeking temporary refuge. We call for Maduro and his representatives to stop issuing politically motivated arrest warrants for members of the democratic opposition and to guarantee safe conduct for those sheltered in the Argentine Embassy.
