Jorge Rodríguez, the president of Venezuela's National Assembly, announced that several former Latin American presidents, including Felipe Calderón and Vicente Fox of Mexico, will be declared 'personas non grata' in Venezuela. This declaration comes in response to their intentions to enter the country without official authorization. Rodríguez characterized these former leaders as 'traitors' and 'insolent' individuals, stating that any foreigners entering Venezuela without government permission would be treated as 'invaders.' The National Assembly is expected to formalize this declaration in an upcoming session.
