The UN Security Council will hold an emergency meeting following a US military operation in Venezuela that resulted in the capture of President Nicolas Maduro and his wife. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres described the action as a "dangerous precedent" and expressed concern that international law was not respected. The US states Maduro faces narco-terrorism charges, while Venezuela's UN Ambassador called the action a "colonial war" violating the UN Charter. The US indicated it would administer Venezuela during a transition period.
