Panama’s aviation measure against Venezuela

Following Venezuela’s temporary suspension of all commercial flights between Panama and Venezuela, to Tocumen International Airport, July 30, 2024, Panama’s civil aviation authority issued measures.

July 30 Reuters reported that Panama’s civil aviation authority had been ordered to apply a "retaliation measure" against Venezuela starting from Wednesday evening.

Returns reports that Panama has since suspended its diplomatic relations with Venezuela and announced it will withdraw its diplomatic personnel until a full review of the disputed vote is conducted.

Panamanian President Jose Raul Mulino and Dominican counterpart Luis Abinader have called for a review of the election results.

The Organization of American States is set to meet on Wednesday to discuss the results, and Panama’s neighbor Costa Rica has offered political asylum to opposition leaders.
