Global reactions to US strikes on Venezuela
The United States carried out a large-scale military operation in Venezuela early Saturday, targeting sites linked to President Nicolás Maduro, who, according to US President Donald Trump, was captured along with his wife and removed from the country. Trump described the operation as coordinated with US law enforcement.
The attacks triggered immediate international reactions. Venezuela condemned the strikes as a severe violation of its sovereignty, calling the actions “extremely serious military aggression.”
Colombian President Gustavo Petro emphasized the need for peace and respect for international law, warning the world about the attack. Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel denounced the US action as “state terrorism” and called for urgent international intervention. Iran also condemned the strikes, highlighting the violation of Venezuela’s territorial integrity.
The operation comes after weeks of US warnings and maritime interventions in the Caribbean, signaling an unprecedented escalation in regional tensions. Analysts warn that the strikes could have significant repercussions on diplomacy, regional stability, and international relations in Latin America.
