The Government of Mexico condemned the military actions carried out by the armed forces of the United States against targets in the territory of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, accusing it of being a “clear violation of Article 2 of the Charter of the United Nations (UN)."

It also asked the United Nations to act “to contribute to de-escalating tensions and facilitate dialogue” based on international law.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, through the Mexican Embassy in Venezuela, will maintain constant communication with Mexican citizens residing in that country to assist them in any way necessary,” the message added.
