Venezuelan President: US Military Threats Against Venezuela Are an International Issue. On September 16th, local time, Venezuela officially established the National Sovereignty and Peace Council. The council, composed of representatives from various sectors of the nation and a parliamentary board, has established diplomatic, legal, and political working groups and regional branches across the country to safeguard national sovereignty through diplomatic and legal channels. At the inauguration ceremony, President Maduro stated that the US military's threats of war against Venezuela in the Caribbean are aimed at seeking "regime change" in Venezuela, installing a "puppet government" that serves US interests, and seizing Venezuela's abundant energy reserves. This is not a national issue, but an international one. Maduro emphasized that the United States is waging a "multifaceted war" against Venezuela in an "immoral manner," and that Venezuela will exercise all its legal rights within the principles of the UN Charter and demand an immediate end to its aggression and lies.
