UK waiting to determine if US breached international law by capturing Nicolás Maduro, PM’s chief secretary says
Venezuela crisis – latest updates
The UK is “not entirely clear” what it means for the US to be in charge of Venezuela, the chief secretary to the prime minister has said, urging a move towards a peaceful transition of power.
Darren Jones said the UK would wait to determine whether there had been a breach of international law after the US attacked the Venezuelan capital and captured its president, Nicolás Maduro, and his wife on Saturday.
Trump told a press conference on Saturday in Florida that the US would run the country until it could do a “safe, proper and judicious transition”.
