The Venezuelan government has formally requested the United Nations to intervene and press the United States for the withdrawal of its warships deployed in the Caribbean Sea. Through its Permanent Mission to the UN, Venezuela characterized the presence of U.S. military forces in the region as a dangerous escalation and a direct threat to regional stability and security. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and the government have described these actions as hostile and as threats to peace, urging the UN Secretary-General to support their call for de-escalation. The Venezuelan authorities emphasize that the deployment of additional U.S. warships constitutes an attack on regional peace and stability.
