On Wednesday evening, the Efe news agency announced that three officials, two Colombians and a Spaniard were also arrested during the coverage of Wednesday's protest.
Colombian Foreign Minister Carlos Holmes Trujillo called for the immediate release of the three journalists from the news agency.
According to French diplomacy, reporters Pierre Caillet and Baptiste des Monstiers, reporters of the Daily TV show, were arrested while filming the Venezuelan presidential palace.
According to the Union of Press Workers, the main trade union formation of journalists in Venezuela, the French were covering a demonstration in support of President Nicolás Maduro. In addition to the two television journalists, TMC, a local producer, Rolando Rodriguez, was arrested. "Since then, we have lost contact with them," said the union.
In addition to the French, two Chilean journalists were also arrested on Tuesday near the presidential palace. According to the same union, Rodrigo Pérez and Gonzalo Barahona, who work for the Chilean television channel TVN, should be expelled from Venezuela.
The arrest provoked an immediate reaction from Chilean President Sebastian Piñera, who called for the "immediate release" of his compatriots. "This is what dictatorships do: trampling on freedom of the press and muzzle freedom with violence," said Chilean Foreign Minister Roberto Ampuera.
