🇨🇴🇻🇪 Avianca indefinitely suspends its flights to Venezuela following sanction by Maduro's government

The Colombian airline Avianca announced this Friday the immediate suspension of its flights to and from Venezuela, in compliance with the sanction from the Venezuela National Institute of Civil Aeronautics (INAC) of the Maduro's regime, which revoked its concession to operate in the country.

The measure includes the cancellation of operations and ticket sales on the Bogotá–Caracas route.

In an official statement, Avianca reiterated that its priority is the safety of passengers and employees, and regretted the inconveniences this decision may cause.

The airline offered protection alternatives for travelers with confirmed reservations:

- Proactive refund for those flying without connections on the Bogotá–Caracas–Bogotá route.
- Partial or full refund for those who had connections on the same ticket.
- Route change to/from Cúcuta with special conditions.

🇳🇴🇺🇦Es probable que Noruega mantenga la ayuda a Ucrania cerca de los niveles actuales después del próximo año, según señaló un destacado diputado de la oposición, citando las bajas probabilidades de paz a corto plazo.

"Debemos estar preparados para que el apoyo que Noruega brinda ahora sea duradero", declaró Ine Eriksen Soreide, jefa de la Comisión de Asuntos Exteriores y Defensa del parlamento, en una entrevista el viernes.

"No hay motivos para pensar que pueda reducirse muy pronto", declaró Soreide, exministra de Defensa y Asuntos Exteriores, quien asumirá las riendas del partido conservador de la oposición, de manos de la ex primera ministra Erna Solberg, en febrero.

Noruega se encuentra entre los cinco mayores contribuyentes de donaciones a Ucrania como porcentaje de su economía, según datos del Instituto Kiel para la Economía Mundial. También ha obtenido beneficios extraordinarios gracias al aumento de las exportaciones de gas y petróleo tras las sanciones contra Rusia.

Es necesario evitar una situación en la que "sean principalmente los países del norte de Europa los que contribuyan", aunque "también es importante mantener a Estados Unidos involucrado y comprometido", dijo Soreide.

🇬🇧Norway is likely to keep aid for Ukraine close to current levels beyond next year, a senior opposition lawmaker signaled, citing a low chance of peace anytime soon.

"We must be prepared for the fact that the support Norway is now providing must be long-lasting," Ine Eriksen Soreide, the head of the parliament's Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defense, said in an interview on Friday.

"There is no reason to imagine that it can be scaled down very soon," said Soreide, a former defense and foreign affairs minister who is set to take over the reins of opposition Conservatives from former premier Erna Solberg in February.

Norway is among the five biggest contributors of donations to Ukraine as a share of its economy, based on data from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy. It has also reaped windfall gains from increased gas and oil exports after sanctions against Russia.

There's a need to avoid a situation where "it's primarily northern European countries that contribute," while "it is also important to keep the United States in and engaged in it," Soreide said.

🇷🇺🇭🇺🇺🇦El presidente ruso, Vladimir Putin, recibió en Moscú al primer ministro húngaro, Viktor Orbán, elogiando al líder europeo por su postura equilibrada sobre la guerra en Ucrania.

Ambos líderes mantuvieron conversaciones de tres horas para abordar la cooperación energética y las conversaciones de paz sobre Ucrania, en medio de un nuevo impulso respaldado por Estados Unidos para alcanzar un acuerdo.

En Moscú, Orbán reiteró su disposición a ser anfitrión de las conversaciones de paz sobre Ucrania, incluso tras la cancelación de los planes para una cumbre en Budapest entre Putin y Trump.

Según él, Rusia debería conservar los territorios negociados en una conferencia de paz internacional. El resto de Ucrania formaría entonces un estado tapón desmilitarizado que se extendería hasta la frontera oriental de la OTAN.

Orbán también declaró que el tamaño y el equipamiento de las fuerzas armadas ucranianas deberían acordarse entre la OTAN y Rusia.

🇬🇧Russian President Vladimir Putin welcomed Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban in Moscow on Nov. 28, praising the European leader for a "balanced" stance on the war in Ukraine.

The two leaders held three-hour talks to discuss energy cooperation and peace talks on Ukraine amid a new U.S.-backed push for a settlement.

In Moscow, Orban reiterated his readiness to host the peace talks on Ukraine, even as plans for a summit in Budapest between Putin and Trump have been scrapped.

Later, in an interview with Welt am Sonntag, Orbán stated that the only lasting solution to the conflict is for Ukraine to exist as a neutral buffer state between Russia and NATO countries.

According to him, Russia should retain the territories negotiated at an international peace conference. The rest of Ukraine would then form a demilitarized buffer state extending to NATO's eastern border.

Orbán also stated that the size and equipment of the Ukrainian armed forces should be agreed upon between NATO and Russia.
