The world is reacting sharply after the United States confirmed military strikes on Venezuela with President Donald Trump claiming Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro has been captured. The action has triggered widespread condemnation with several countries calling it a blatant violation of international law and national sovereignty.
Russia was among the first to respond condemning the strikes as an act of armed aggression and warning that Washington’s actions risk destabilizing the entire region. Iran echoed that criticism calling the attack a clear breach of the United Nations Charter and Venezuela’s territorial integrity.
Cuba described the operation as a criminal assault accusing the United States of state terrorism and urging the international community to take immediate action. In Latin America Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro warned the strikes represent an assault on regional sovereignty and could trigger a dangerous escalation calling for an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council.
Spain urged restraint and offered to help mediate a peaceful resolution while Germany and Italy said they were monitoring the situation closely amid growing concern over regional stability and civilian safety.
Inside the United States the strikes have also drawn criticism. Several Democratic lawmakers questioned the legality of the operation arguing that Congress was not consulted and warning against another open ended military intervention.
Venezuela’s government has rejected U.S. claims accusing Washington of launching an invasion to seize control of the country’s vast oil reserves.
As tensions rise global leaders are calling for de-escalation warning that further military action could plunge Latin America into a wider and more dangerous conflict.
