Panama offers safe passage to Venezuela’s Maduro to allow for transition

PANAMA CITY (Reuters) -Panama’s President Jose Raul Mulino told broadcaster CNN on Friday he would give Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro safe passage to act as a “bridge” to a third country in order to allow for a political transition in Venezuela.

Maduro has claimed victory in his reelection bid late last month, but the political opposition in the South ********* nation has done the same while the electoral authority has yet to release detailed vote tallies.

“If that’s the contribution, the sacrifice that Panama has to make, by offering our soil so that this man and his family can leave Venezuela, Panama would do it without a doubt,” Mulino said in an interview.

Panama is part of a group of ****** ********* countries that have cut diplomatic ties with Venezuela since the disputed July 28 election, including Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Peru, and Uruguay.
