Canadian political leaders expressed sharply divergent views regarding reported U.S. military operations in Venezuela, creating a notable split in foreign policy perspectives. The development followed confirmation from U.S. President Donald Trump regarding American intervention in the South American nation.

Interim New Democratic Party Leader Don Davies took to social media to condemn the alleged operations, characterizing them as “a flagrant violation of international law and the rules-based system that the United States claims to support.” Davies urged the Canadian government to “strongly condemn this attack and call for an immediate end to the US aggression against the sovereign state of Venezuela.”

Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet echoed these concerns, warning that the United States appeared to be “acting as a policeman at the risk of ignoring international law.” Blanchet specifically criticized the purported use of military force that “endangers the lives of civilians” and the reported kidnapping of Venezuelan leadership, even while acknowledging questions about their legitimacy.

In contrast, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre broke with international legal conventions by expressing support for American bombings in multiple Venezuelan states and the alleged capture of constitutional President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores.

The political division emerged alongside President Trump’s press conference statements explicitly acknowledging U.S. interests in Venezuelan oil resources. During the briefing, Trump made clear that countries failing to align with White House directives regarding Venezuela would face consequences, signaling a firm stance on international compliance with American foreign policy objectives.

Montevideo witnessed a significant demonstration of solidarity as protesters gathered before Venezuela’s diplomatic headquarters, voicing strong opposition to perceived U.S. military interventions. The rally, organized by Uruguay’s PIT-CNT labor union alongside various social organizations, featured prominent speaker Sassone who characterized recent American operations as “an unprecedented military action by the United States in terms of violating constitutional and international law.”

Sassone further asserted that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is effectively held hostage by invading U.S. forces, demanding his immediate liberation. The demonstration gained additional support from the Association of Cuban Residents in Uruguay, which issued statements condemning what they termed “imperialist aggression” against Venezuela.

The Cuban association’s communiqué specifically urged Cuban expatriates in Uruguay to join both Uruguayan citizens and other organizations in the capital-based protest. According to their published text, the gathering aimed to repudiate “US interference and intervention in our sovereign countries” while simultaneously expressing “solidarity and support for the brotherly Venezuelan people, who will not be alone in their struggle for freedom and self-determination.” The event represents growing Latin American concern over external involvement in regional affairs.

The Union of Cuban Journalists (UPEC) has issued a forceful condemnation of what it characterizes as unprecedented American aggression against Venezuela. In an official statement, the organization accused the United States of launching direct attacks against multiple Venezuelan regions including Caracas, Miranda, Aragua, and La Guaira before allegedly orchestrating the abduction of President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores, who have reportedly joined what UPEC describes as the “endless list of the disappeared under imperial auspices.”

The statement frames these events as validation of historical warnings about what it terms “Northern voracity,” asserting that current actions exceed even the imperial brutality documented during José Martí’s era. UPEC further contends that recent developments have effectively shattered Latin America’s carefully constructed “Zone of Peace” initiative, which sought to maintain regional harmony despite political differences.

In particularly scathing rhetoric, the journalists’ association referenced former U.S. President Donald Trump’s symbolic renaming of the Defense Department as the “Department of War,” suggesting this semantic shift foreshadowed current events. The statement sarcastically proposed that Trump would merit a “Nobel Prize for War” while criticizing the actual Nobel recognition given to Venezuelan opposition figure Maria Corina Machado, whom UPEC implied celebrates violence disguised as pacifism.

The organization concluded with a reaffirmation of Cuba’s unwavering solidarity with Maduro and the Bolivarian people, declaring that imperial oil interests cannot override regional aspirations for peace and self-determination. “Latin America and the Caribbean refuse to be anyone’s backyard,” the statement emphasized, “but insist on being their own garden.”

Venezuela has activated a national state of emergency following what government officials describe as an act of imperialist aggression. The decree, originally signed by the president, was formally announced by the vice president during a nationwide radio and television address. She subsequently delivered the emergency order to the president of the Supreme Court of Justice for immediate implementation.

According to the vice president, this armed incursion represents a severe rupture in bilateral relations with the United States. She revealed that President Nicolas Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores were reportedly captured during the operation, characterizing the event as a savage attack on Venezuela’s sovereignty and territorial integrity in the early hours of the morning.

The government asserts that the true objective behind the aggression is the seizure of Venezuela’s substantial energy, mineral, and natural resources. Officials have called upon the international community to recognize this alleged resource grab, with the vice president emphasizing that “the world must know this.”

In response to the crisis, Venezuelan citizens have reportedly taken to the streets following mobilization calls from leadership. The vice president reiterated the president’s previous warning that any threat to his safety would trigger widespread civil mobilization, workplace activism by militant groups, and full deployment of the Bolivarian National Armed Forces.

The government claims significant international support from nations including China, Russia, and various countries across Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, and Asia. The vice president added that global governments are reportedly shocked that Venezuela has become the target of an attack with what she characterized as “Zionist undertones.”

The entire National Power of Venezuela has been activated to defend what officials describe as the nation’s Bolivarian heritage and sacred duty to protect national independence.
