Venezuela has accused Donald Trump of making a “colonialist threat” after he said the airspace around the country should be considered closed.
The country’s foreign ministry called Trump’s comments “another extravagant, illegal and unjustified aggression against the Venezuelan people”.
The US does not legally have the authority to close another country’s airspace, but Trump’s online post could lead to travel uncertainty and deter airlines from operating there.
Honestly this comment is just so confusing and baffling I’m just dumbfounded. What on earth do you mean? The relationship between China and taiwan is nothing like the relationship between the US and Venezuela
Edit: even if it was…why would it just be presumed to be cool that China close the airspace around Taiwan? Wtf
If the usa invades sovereign and peaceful Venezuela there should be sanctions and retribution, the same way as Russia invading Ukraine. What is missing in the current situation is condemning the usa the same way as when China talks about Taiwan; two standards.
I feel like I get it now. Of course it’s bad that the us does this. It seemed so obvious I didn’t think that would be the point
Henry Rollins would be shaking his head at your lack of understanding
That’s rather the point? See how ridiculous is sounds in a different context?
