This is stated in a statement published on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Panama.

It is noted that this measure did not affect the embassy staff responsible for consular issues.

“This measure was taken the day after the illegal detention of Roberto Marrero, the head of the cabinet of the President of Guayido, which undermines efforts to achieve peace in this country,” the text says.

Earlier, the head of the National Assembly of Venezuela, Guayido, said that the authorities had detained "the head of his staff," Roberto Marrero.

Later, Venezuela’s Interior Minister Nestor Reverol reported that Marrero was accused of organizing criminal terrorist groups.

At the end of March, it also became known that the United States introduced a bill to counteract "Russian influence" in Venezuela. The document is published on the website of the legislature.

Americanist Rafael Orduhanyan, in an interview with Nation News, commented on the introduction of this document.
