Russia Urgently Evacuates Diplomatic Staff From Venezuela as Pre-War Protocols Activated
Russia has begun evacuating the families of its diplomats stationed in Venezuela, signaling deepening concerns in Moscow about the future of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro’s government amid escalating pressure from the United States.
According to multiple news sources, the Russian Foreign Ministry initiated the evacuation of wives and children of its diplomatic staff in Caracas, citing an unnamed European intelligence official who spoke to the Associated Press.
The official said the evacuation, which began last Friday, reflects Moscow’s growing apprehension about Venezuela’s volatile political and security situation. The operation is understood to focus on non-official personnel — primarily family members — rather than an outright withdrawal of the embassy itself.
