Venezuela calls US President Trump warning ‘colonialist threat’

BBC News has the story.

Venezuela has reacted angrily to USA President Donald Trump's statement that 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 have legal authority to close another country's airspace and the Venezuelan statement accused Trump of making a "colonialist threat".

 

The US has built its military presence in the area and carried out at least 21 strikes on boats it says were carrying drugs, killing more than 80. It has not provided evidence and Venezuela's President Nicolás Maduro said the US moves are an attempt to oust him.

Explained: Canada Approves Major Citizenship Law Overhaul: Relief for Indian-Origin Families

The Indian Express has the story.

Canada is changing its citizenship rules to remove decades-old restrictions that created thousands of “lost Canadians” — including many Indians who settled overseas. With the passing of Bill C-3, Canadians born abroad will now be able to pass citizenship to children also born outside Canada, provided they can show a substantial connection to the country. The reforms follow a court ruling that earlier laws were unconstitutional and unfair. Canada says the move makes its Citizenship Act more inclusive and aligned with how modern global families live. But when will the changes take effect? Who benefits? And what does this mean for Indian-origin families worldwide? Watch this complete explainer from The Indian Express to understand the new rules, legal implications, timelines, and expected surge in citizenship requests.
