CARACAS, July 30 (Xinhua) — Venezuelan Foreign Minister Ivan Gil on Tuesday accused U.S. Embassy Charge d'Affaires in Colombia John McNamara of kidnapping 33 Venezuelan children.

D. McNamara “is the perpetrator of this crime, directly responsible for maintaining this illegal and deeply immoral situation,” the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs wrote on social networks.

The children were “separated from their families, which is a clear violation of international law, human rights and even their own [US – Xinhua] laws,” the official said. He denounced the practice of separating families as “criminal, inhumane and outrageous” and called for the “unconditional” release of the children so they can be reunited with their relatives. “Freedom for the abducted boys and girls!” he said, attaching photos of the children to his post.

Venezuela has condemned U.S. President Donald Trump's crackdown on immigrants. In March, the two countries agreed to resume repatriation flights for Venezuelan migrants under the government's "Return to the Homeland" program. –0–
