In the United States, Argentina, England, and Greece, many people took to the streets to protest against the U.S. attack on Venezuela and to express their reaction to Donald Trump.
The U.S. military's capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife and their removal from the country yesterday caused a bombshell effect on the world agenda.
PROTESTS IN MANY COUNTRIES
After Maduro and his wife were transferred to the New York Metropolitan Federal Detention Center in Brooklyn, many people took to the streets in the U.S., Argentina, England, and Greece to condemn the actions of the U.S.
MASS PROTEST IN LONDON
In the protests held in London, the capital of England, the crowd reacted to U.S. President Donald Trump, chanting slogans against the U.S. A protester named Ben Woodward said, "This is clearly an imperialist aggression. If they can't control this country, they bully with sanctions, threats, and eventually bombs and kidnappings. What we see in Venezuela is exactly that."
"THE U.S. BOMBING OF VENEZUELA IS STATE TERRORISM"
Reagan Gray, who participated in the protest in London, stated, "The U.S. bombing of Venezuela is state terrorism. This is imperialist state terrorism. This action was taken to achieve what they have aimed for from the beginning, which is to overthrow a democratically elected government. Thus, the U.S. could seize Venezuela's gold, oil, and resources."
THEY TOOK TO THE STREETS IN GREECE
In the protest demonstration in Athens, the capital of Greece, it was emphasized that "the plan to complete U.S. hegemony in Latin America is being implemented." Yannis Simopoulos, a participant in the protest, stated, "Although they claim to aim to combat drug trafficking, their intentions are clear. As President Trump himself has said, they want to exploit Venezuela's mineral wealth."
Meanwhile, protest demonstrations were also held in Argentina.
THEY FILLED TIMES SQUARE
As the echoes of the U.S. military attack on Venezuela continued, thousands of people protested against the war in New York. The crowd gathered in Times Square, one of the busiest points in the city, reacted strongly to the U.S. policy towards Venezuela.
Following the U.S. military action against Venezuela, anti-war groups called for protests across the country. The demonstration in New York stood out as one of the largest participations in these calls.
It was observed that participants from different ethnic groups, unions, and civil society organizations joined the protest.
