CARACAS—Venezuela’s foreign ministry said on Nov. 3 it was expelling El Salvador’s diplomats from the country, in response to the Central American country’s decision to kick out their counterparts, who represent Venezuelan regime leader Nicolas Maduro.
In a statement, the ministry said it would give the diplomats 48 hours to leave. El Salvador President Nayib Bukele’s government doesn’t recognize Maduro as legitimate and said on Nov. 2 that it would receive a new diplomatic corps representing opposition leader Juan Guaido.
