The Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Friday imposed a travel ban on parts of Venezuela amid political friction between its regime and the United States.
The ban — the highest Level 4 of a four-tier travel warning system — will take effect at 11 p.m. in the border states of Zulia, Tachira, Apure and Sucre, excluding their respective capitals and the eastern part of Zulia.
