U.S. military strikes in Venezuela, targeting alleged narco-terrorist networks, have led to the capture of President Nicolás Maduro. While the U.S. cites justification for its actions, critics and the UN question potential violations of international law. China and Russia have strongly condemned the U.S. intervention, accusing it of violating Venezuela's sovereignty and threatening regional peace. Both nations have pledged support for Venezuela, signaling a potential diplomatic and economic alignment against U.S. pressure.
