Venezuela: US Action Sparks Protests, Global Condemnation

Venezuela: US Action Sparks Protests, Global Condemnation

A wave of protests is building across the United States, fueled by outrage over recent developments in Venezuela. Left-leaning organizations are spearheading calls for nationwide demonstrations in response to what they characterize as US interference in Venezuelan affairs.

The immediate catalyst appears to be the capture of a key figure, though details remain fluid. Reports indicate a celebratory tone from within the US government, with one account citing a direct statement of satisfaction from former President Trump.

However, the US action has drawn sharp criticism internationally. China has condemned the move as ‘unilateral bullying,’ asserting that no single nation should assume the role of a global ‘policeman.’ European reactions have been more nuanced, with observers noting differing standards applied to events in Venezuela compared to the conflict in Ukraine.

In Caracas, Venezuelans are reacting to the unfolding events, describing the weekend as potentially historic. The situation remains volatile, and further developments are anticipated as protests gain momentum and international pressure mounts.
