Earlier this week, Chilean President Gabriel Boric took to the international stage to condemn recent U.S. military actions in Venezuela, calling them a dangerous move that could set a troubling precedent for the region 🤔.
Speaking at a press conference in Santiago, Boric warned that foreign military involvement in another Latin American country risks undermining national sovereignty and stirring further instability. "When one country exerts control over another by force, it opens the door to endless conflicts," he said, urging swift action from the United Nations.
The Chilean leader highlighted the importance of diplomatic solutions and multilateral cooperation. He proposed that the UN Security Council convene an emergency session to de-escalate tensions and prevent any further military steps that could spiral into a larger crisis.
For Boric, the situation in Venezuela isn't just a distant issue—it's a wake-up call for all of Latin America. He stressed that regional challenges, from economic hardship to migration flows, require solidarity rather than intervention. "Our future depends on respecting each nation's choice and working together for peace," he added.
This stance reflects Boric's broader vision of a more unified Latin America, where dialogue and mutual respect guide international relations. As the UN considers Chile's appeal, many eyes will be on how global powers respond to calls for peaceful resolutions over military posturing.
Stay tuned to see if the United Nations heeds the call and how the U.S. and Venezuela navigate this growing diplomatic flashpoint. 🌎✌️
