That reverses a Venezuelan government Saturday announcement indicating that U.S. immigration authorities <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/venezuela-trump-airspace-migrant-repatriation-flights\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">had unilaterally suspended the flights<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>An overflight and landing application submitted Monday by U.S.-based Eastern Airlines requests permission for an arrival Wednesday. The agreement authorizes flights on a Boeing 777-200 from Phoenix, Arizona, to land at Maiquet\u00eda International Airport, the Venezuelan government said. The application was made public Tuesday by Venezuela&#8217;s foreign affairs minister.<\/p>\n<p>Venezuelans have been steadily deported to their home country this year after Maduro, <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/nearly-8000-venezuelan-nationals-ice-deportation-flights\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">under pressure from the White House<\/a><\/span>, did away with his long-standing policy of not accepting deportees from the U.S. Maduro has since framed their return as a triumph, saying Venezuelans are being repatriated from harsh conditions in U.S. detention.<\/p>\n<p>Immigrants arrive regularly at the airport outside the capital, Caracas, on flights operated by a U.S. government contractor or Venezuela&#8217;s state-owned airline. More than 13,000 immigrants have returned so far this year on the chartered flights, the latest of which arrived Friday.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S.-Venezuela repatriation deal has faced scrutiny from human rights organizations, though Trump administration officials point to the diplomatic deal as an important tool in reducing the influence of transnational criminal gangs. The flights have continued despite U.S. military strikes against vessels suspected of smuggling drugs in the eastern Pacific Ocean and off Venezuela&#8217;s Caribbean coast.<\/p>\n<p>Trump administration officials say the combination of targeted strikes and deportation flights reflect a multi-pronged strategy to disrupt the <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-boat-tren-de-aragua-gang-venezuela\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Tren de Aragua<\/a><\/span> gang and other organized criminal networks, which have been linked to drug trafficking and violent crime throughout the Americas.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration has also claimed some of the drug cartels are controlled by Maduro. <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/trump-cabinet-meeting-venezuela\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Mr. Trump said Tuesday that the U.S. would start doing strikes on land soon<\/a><\/span>, though he didn&#8217;t specify where and said attacks might occur in countries besides Venezuela, suggesting Colombia could see military strikes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know, the land is much easier, much easier. And we know the routes they take,&#8221; Mr. Trump said to reporters as he <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/trump-cabinet-meeting-venezuela\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">met with his Cabinet at the White House<\/a><\/span>. &#8220;We know everything about them We know where they live. We know where the bad ones live. And we&#8217;re going to start that very soon too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Later, when asked to elaborate, the president said he was speaking about countries that are manufacturing and selling fentanyl or cocaine. The president said he heard that Colombia is manufacturing cocaine and selling it to the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Colombia, indeed, is the world&#8217;s top cocaine producer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Anybody that&#8217;s doing that and selling it into our country is subject to attack,&#8221; Mr. Trump said. He added a few moments later: &#8220;Not just Venezuela.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tuesday&#8217;s Cabinet meeting came amid calls for investigations and\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a

data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">follow-up strike on an alleged drug boat<\/a><\/span>\u00a0may have constituted a war crime.<\/p>\n<p>As tensions continue to escalate between the two countries,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/pope-leo-xiv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pope Leo XVI<\/a>\u00a0on Tuesday called for the U.S. to pursue dialogue and even economic pressure on Venezuela to achieve its goals, rather than threats of military action.<\/p>\n<p>Leo, history&#8217;s first American pope, told reporters aboard the papal plane\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/live\/pope-leo-middle-east-visit-12-2-2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">returning from Lebanon<\/a>\u00a0that the Venezuelan bishops conference and the Vatican Embassy in Caracas were trying to calm the situation and look out for the plight of ordinary Venezuelans.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The voices coming from the United States change, with a certain frequency at times,&#8221; he said. &#8220;On the one hand, it seems there was telephone conversation between the two presidents, on the other, there&#8217;s this danger, this possibility of an activity, an operation including invading the territory of Venezuela.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He stressed that he didn&#8217;t have further information. &#8220;Again I believe it&#8217;s better to look for ways of dialogue, perhaps pressure \u2014 including economic pressure \u2014 \u00a0but looking for other ways to change, if that&#8217;s what the United States wants to do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section
