BRUSSELS – The European Union calls for de-escalation of the situation in Venezuela and supports a peaceful, democratic solution, said the President of the European Council Antonio Košta.

“I am following the situation in Venezuela with great concern. The European Union calls for de-escalation and for resolving the situation with full respect for international law and the principles established in the Charter of the United Nations,” Košta wrote on the X platform.

He stated that the European Union will continue to support a peaceful, democratic and inclusive solution in Venezuela. American forces launched airstrikes on Caracas and other areas of Venezuela during the night, after which, as announced by US President Donald Tramp, they captured and removed from the country President Nikolas Maduro and his wife.
