Countryinfo package charmap error

[mkaru]

I made changes in countryinfo.py file but no positive result:

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
country = CountryInfo('France')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
  File "...\site-packages\countryinfo\countryinfo.py", line 30, in __init__
    country_info = json.load(open(file_path, encoding='utf-8'))
