    Maduro retaliates and will demand visas from US citizens travelling to Venezuela

    The Venezuelan president had to remain in his country despite his announced Sunday trip to Uruguay for the change of government ceremony

    President Nicolas Maduro said his government had captured American citizens involved in “espionage activities,” and said US citizens in the future will have to seek visas to come to Venezuela. Speaking during a rally, he said his government will prohibit some US officials from entering Venezuela in retaliation for a similar measure by the government of President Barack Obama against a group of Venezuelan public officials.
