Global reactions continued to emerge following reports that the United States carried out military strikes in Venezuela. Governments and international organisations assessed the implications for regional stability and international law.
Russia said the reported strikes clearly violated international law and called for an urgent meeting of the United Nations Security Council. Russian officials warned that the use of force without international authorisation risked undermining global security and setting a dangerous precedent.
Other world leaders expressed concern about escalation and urged restraint, while calling for clarification of the circumstances surrounding the operation. Some governments emphasised the need to respect Venezuela’s sovereignty and resolve disputes through diplomatic channels.
US officials defended the action as part of broader security efforts, though details remained limited. As diplomatic discussions intensified, observers said the situation could have lasting consequences for regional relations, energy markets, and international norms governing the use of force.
