Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on Saturday slammed the US attacks on Venezuela as a "serious affront" to the country's sovereignty, echoing criticism made by fellow regional heavyweight, Mexico, AFP reported.
"The bombings in Venezuelan territory and the capture of its president cross an unacceptable line" the left-wing Lula wrote on X, saying they threaten "the preservation of the region as a zone of peace."
He urged the international community, through the United Nations, to "respond vigorously" to the attacks.
