This same Thursday, the Panamanian president, José Raúl Mulino, said that his country "benefits from opening commercial flights with Venezuela" after reporting that he has received "a letter" from the Venezuelan authorities in which they propose to resume them.
Last July 29, Nicolás Maduro announced the temporary suspension of commercial flights to and from Panama, after Mulino suspended diplomatic relations with Venezuela due to the post-election crisis in that country.
