The United States suspended all commercial passenger and cargo flights between the U.S. and Venezuela, saying the political unrest and tensions there pose a risk to flights.
An American Airlines passenger jet approaches Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Arlington, Va, on May 9, 2019. Citing safety concerns, the U.S. on May 15, 2019, suspended all passenger and cargo air services to Venezuela.
American Airlines stopped its flights in mid-March after union leaders told pilots not to go there because of safety concerns. Some other international airlines quit flying to Venezuela years ago because of the country's deteriorating economy. Also Wednesday, Venezuela's opposition-controlled congress returned to its chamber a day after security forces prevented legislators from entering the National Assembly building for a debate.
