The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela has officially rejected, repudiated, and denounced what it describes as a grave military aggression by the current US government against Venezuelan territory and civilian populations.

The attacks targeted both military installations and civilian locations in Caracas, the capital city, as well as in the states of Miranda, Aragua, and La Guaira.

Venezuelan authorities characterized these strikes as constituting a flagrant violation of the United Nations Charter, particularly Articles 1 and 2 which enshrine respect for sovereignty, legal equality of states, and the prohibition of the use of force.

International condemnation of the US actions has been swift and widespread, with multiple countries expressing outrage at both the military aggression and the apparent capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.

China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a strong condemnation, stating it was 'deeply shocked and strongly condemns the blatant use of force by the United States against a sovereign state and its action against its president.'

China emphasized that such hegemonic behavior 'gravely violates international law, infringes Venezuela's sovereignty and threatens peace and security in Latin America and the Caribbean.'

Cuba also denounced the attack as 'state terrorism,' while Venezuelan activists within the United States immediately called for protests against what they termed the 'illegal kidnapping of President Maduro by Trump' and the 'war against Venezuela.'

The Venezuelan government has responded with immediate mobilization measures, declaring a state of external shock and ordering the transition to armed struggle.

President Nicolás Maduro has signed and ordered the implementation of a decree declaring a state of 'Conmoción Exterior' throughout the national territory, designed to protect the population's rights, ensure the full functioning of republican institutions, and immediately move toward armed struggle.

The Maduro administration has called on all social and political forces in the country to activate mobilization plans and repudiate what it calls 'imperialist aggression.'

The National Bolivarian Armed Forces have been deployed in perfect 'popular-military-police fusion' to guarantee sovereignty and peace, while the government has simultaneously ordered the immediate deployment of the Command for the Integral Defense of the Nation and Defense Direction Organs in all states and municipalities.

The US military operation appears to have included the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, who according to reports was taken to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) office and subsequently transferred to a detention center in Brooklyn.

Media communications have shown new images of Maduro's arrival at the DEA building, where both DEA agents and Maduro's wife, Cilia Flores, were observed.

The Venezuelan government has framed the entire operation as an attempt to seize the country's strategic resources, particularly oil and minerals, and to break Venezuela's political independence through force.

Caracas characterized the aggression as an attempt to impose a colonial war to destroy the republican form of government and force a 'regime change' in alliance with what it calls a 'fascist oligarchy.'

Venezuela has initiated diplomatic actions while reserving its right to self-defense under international law.

The Bolivarian Diplomacy for Peace has announced that it will file corresponding complaints with the UN Security Council, the UN Secretary General, CELAC, and MNOAL, demanding condemnation and accountability from the US government.

Citing Article 51 of the UN Charter, Venezuela explicitly reserves the right to exercise legitimate self-defense to protect its people, territory, and independence.

The government has emphasized its historical resistance to imperialism, noting that Venezuela has faced and defeated empires since 1811 and invoking the spirit of independence leaders Simón Bolívar and Francisco de Miranda.

Maduro's administration called on the peoples and governments of Latin America, the Caribbean, and the world to mobilize in active solidarity against what it terms 'imperial aggression,' invoking the words of late President Hugo Chávez who emphasized that in any circumstance of difficulties, the response of all patriots is 'unity, struggle, battle and victory.'
