Türkiye Urges Restraint After Capture of Venezuela’s President
(MENAFN) Türkiye emphasized on Saturday its commitment to maintaining stability in Venezuela and safeguarding the peace and welfare of its people.
"In order to prevent the current situation from leading to adverse consequences for regional and international security, we call on all parties to act with restraint," declared the Foreign Ministry in a statement issued after US military strikes on Venezuelan territory and the reported detention of President Nicolas Maduro.
The statement noted that Ankara is "closely" monitoring the unfolding events in Venezuela and expressed readiness to contribute to resolving the crisis within the framework of international law.
"In this process, our Embassy in Caracas continues uninterrupted communication and necessary coordination with our citizens in the country," the ministry added.
Earlier, Venezuela’s authorities accused the US of targeting both civilian and military facilities across several states, prompting the declaration of a national emergency.
On his platform Truth Social, US President Donald Trump confirmed that the US had carried out a "large scale" strike, announcing that Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife had been captured and transported out of the country.
These developments followed months of strained relations between Washington and Caracas, with the US alleging Maduro’s involvement in drug trafficking. Maduro rejected the accusations, insisting he was not a cartel leader and had shown willingness to engage in dialogue.
