Venezuela seeks UN help over US military actions

Associated Press

CARACAS—Venezuela’s government on Thursday requested an emergency session of the United Nations Security Council focused on the US military actions in recent weeks in the waters off the South American country.

Venezuela accused the administration of US President Donald Trump of seeking to topple Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and threatening “peace, security and stability regionally and internationally.”

Maduro’s government also expressed its expectation of an “armed attack” against Venezuela in “a very short time.”

So far, the US military has carried four deadly strikes in the Caribbean since it increased its maritime forces for what Trump has declared an “armed conflict” with drug cartels.

Maduro’s government, however, maintains that the White House is using drug trafficking only as an excuse for the operation.
