JUST IN: World leaders react to capture of Venezuela’s Maduro

So now let's go to reaction that's pouring in from world leaders this morning who are waking up to a new reality with what happened overnight. We have our CB Cotton who has been following reaction from all over the world. CB, there's been plenty of reaction here in the United States. Democrats, Republicans split on whether or not this was an illegal or legal move. But around the world, there's also harsh reaction as well. What can you tell us it be?

Hey, Brian, that's right. Well, this morning, the U. N. Secretary General released a statement saying he is deeply concerned that international law may not have been respected. As you mentioned, global leaders are watching as all of this unfolds to see what comes next for Venezuela and U.S. foreign policy in Europe. The European Council president released a statement, Antonio Costa, and he said he was

following the developments with, quote, great concern, urging de-escalation and respect of international law. Some Latin American countries are also making similar calls. Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum reposted the official statement of her country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which condemned the strikes as a violation of the United Nations and called for dialogue, not force.

U.S. adversaries are also weighing in. Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, writing in part on X quote, the pretext used to justify these actions are untenable. Russia reaffirms its solidarity with the Venezuelan people, Iran and its supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, which also has a long history of conflict with the US. While he has rattled off a series of posts this morning about the strike, including one which says in part, quote, what's important is when one realizes an

enemy wants to force something on one's government or nation with false claims, they must stand firmly against the enemy. But there are also voices of support. Argentina's president, a strong ally of President Trump, wrote quote freedom advances, long live freedom and in the UK reform leader and staunch Trump ally Nigel Farage, he questioned the legality of the attack but said it may lead to a favorable outcome. UK Prime Minister Keir Stalmer had more a reserve take saying he wanted to make it clear that the UK

was not involved in these strikes and he believes everyone should uphold international law. He also added that he wants to speak to President Trump and other UK allies. Brian we're gonna monitor it back to you. No doubt US

ambassador to the United Nations Michael Waltz just putting on X this is not regime change. This is justice. Maduro was indicted, illegitimate dictator that led a declared narco-terrorism organization responsible for killing American citizens. All eyes will be on New York City this upcoming week, as well as Caracas, Venezuela.

CB Cotton, thank you from the United Nations.
