Brazil goes ballistic at UNSC over Maduro capture, demands US' accountability for Venezuela raid

Brazil condemned US military actions in Venezuela at an emergency UN Security Council meeting, calling the bombings and capture of President Nicolas Maduro a blatant violation of the UN Charter. Brazil’s UN representative Sergio Franca Danese warned that the intervention crossed an unacceptable line and posed a dangerous precedent for global sovereignty. The operation, described by Washington as a law enforcement action, triggered a national emergency in Venezuela. Russia, China, Colombia, and African nations voiced strong opposition, while European states urged respect for international law without directly condemning the US. The incident sparked widespread global criticism and geopolitical tension.
