not to travel to Venezuela, warning of &#8220;severe risks&#8221; including wrongful detention, kidnapping and torture.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/ve.usembassy.gov\/do-not-travel-to-venezuela-for-any-reason-and-avoid-venezuelan-borders-with-colombia-brazil-and-guyana\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">State Department said<\/a> that it does not have an operating embassy or consulate in the South American country, and cannot provide routine or emergency consular services to U.S. citizens there. All U.S. citizens currently in Venezuela should leave immediately, the State Department said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;U.S. citizens are at extreme risk of detention when entering Venezuela at any location. They may be unjustly charged with terrorism or other serious crimes and detained for long periods,&#8221; the State Department said in a news release announcing the warning. &#8220;U.S. citizens have been detained upon arrival at land borders, airports, and maritime ports of entry. There is no safe way for Americans to travel to Venezuela.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>More U.S. nationals are currently wrongfully detained in Venezuela than in any other country, the department said. In some cases, detentions have happened when people accidentally cross into Venezuela from neighboring countries, where borders may not be clearly marked. Detained Americans may also be unjustly charged with serious crimes, including terrorism, the State Department said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Venezuelan government does not report detentions to the U.S. government, making it impossible for the U.S. to visit those citizens or intervene. U.S. citizens detained in Venezuela also cannot contact family members or private attorneys, the State Department said.<\/p>\n<p>Other potential concerns in Venezuela include the arbitrary enforcement of local laws, civil unrest and poor health infrastructure, the State Department said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The map below shows <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/map-travel-advisory-us-state-department\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">State Department travel advisories<\/a><\/span> by country.
