Press Statement

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Saint Kitts and Nevis expresses its grave concern regarding the recent developments in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and urges all parties involved to exercise restraint and de-escalate tensions. We remain deeply engaged in monitoring the fluid situation in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and its neighbours and reaffirm our steadfast hope for the safety and well-being of the Venezuelan people. In this light, we express our regret for the loss of lives related to the extraction of President Maduro and his wife from their home in Caracas.

Saint Kitts and Nevis calls for peace, adherence to the rule of law as enshrined in the United Nations Charter, and respect for the fundamental rights of all parties involved.

The Ministry remains in contact with the Chargé d’ Affaires at the Embassy of the

Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela in Basseterre for routine updates on the ground in Venezuela and the developments in the judicial process in the United States of America where they are being detained for trial.

As Chair of the Council for Foreign and Community Relations (COFCOR), the Right Honourable Minister of Foreign Affairs offers his readiness to coordinate any collective action aimed at achieving a diplomatic and peaceful resolution to the challenges.
