British Prime Minister Keir Starmer stated that the United Kingdom was not involved in the operation carried out by the United States in Venezuela, which led to the capture of President Nicolás Maduro and airstrikes on the capital Caracas. Starmer emphasized that the British government is working with the embassy in Venezuela to support the 500 British citizens in the country. He also mentioned that it is important to establish all the facts before taking a position. The leader of the Liberal Democrats, Sir Ed Davey, called for a condemnation of the action, deeming it illegal and dangerous to global security. While other political leaders criticized the operation, Starmer highlighted the need to respect international law and is awaiting further details from a press conference by Donald Trump. The leader of Reform UK, Nigel Farage, acknowledged that the operation violated international law but suggested that it could deter actions by China and Russia. The leader of the Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch, has not publicly commented on these events.
