China makes huge demand to US as Trum
The world watched in disbelief.
Delta Force stormed Caracas, Nicolás Maduro was dragged from his bed, and Donald Trump declared the U.S. “in charge” of Venezuela.
Within hours, China unleashed a blistering rebuke and backed an emergency UN showdown.
China’s furious response to the U.S. raid on Nicolás Maduro has turned a risky operation into a full-blown geopolitical crisis.
Beijing’s denunciation of Washington as a self‑appointed “world’s police” lands at the
very moment Trump boasts that America is “in charge of Venezuela now,” openly threatening further missions if Caracas “doesn’t behave.”
For China, and for many governments across Latin America and Europe, that language sounds less like counter‑narcotics enforcement and more like the return of gunboat diplomacy.
As Trump widens his rhetoric to Colombia, Cuba, and Mexico, regional leaders are scrambling to contain the fallout.
A rare joint statement from Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay, and
Spain warns that the raid shreds the core principle of sovereignty and sets an “extremely dangerous precedent.”
Yet Trump is celebrating a “brilliant” success, even as an emergency UN Security Council session looms.
Between a defiant White House and a mobilized international community, Venezuela has become the stage for a far larger struggle over who gets to decide the rules of global power.
