The United States is warning Americans against travel to Venezuela as the Trump administration states more U.S. nationals are wrongfully detained by Caracas than by any other government.

American travelers are being urged to immediately leave Venezuela and keep away. The US State Department has renewed its warning against travel to the country, citing "severe risks" for American citizens.

The U.S. has issued a major travel warning for Venezuela. The alert includes these suggestions: Do not travel to Venezuela. U.S. citizens in Venezuela should depart immediately. Avoid all Venezuelan borders.
