Kim Jong-un enters the US-Venezuela conflict, says: Release my friend Maduro immediately, or else...

Global tensions have escalated after the US detained Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, calling Maduro his friend, warned the US of a world war and demanded his immediate release.

The detention of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores by the US has drawn sharp reactions globally. North Korea, calling Maduro its 'friend', has issued a direct warning to the US of a world war.

'This step could lead to a third world war...'

North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un has issued a stern warning to the US, saying that this action could lead the world to a world war. Kim Jong-un demanded that Donald Trump and the US leadership immediately disclose Maduro's whereabouts.

'This step could lead to a third world war...'

Calling Maduro his 'friend', he said that this repressive step could lead to a global conflict. Kim clearly stated that the Venezuelan president should be released immediately, otherwise, there would be serious international consequences.

Russia appeals for a solution through dialogue

Meanwhile, Russia has also strongly condemned the US action. The Russian Foreign Ministry issued a statement saying that the US has committed 'armed aggression' against Venezuela, which is extremely worrying and reprehensible. Russia said that the arguments given by the US are baseless and this step is driven by ideological hostility rather than diplomacy. Moscow has appealed to all parties to avoid escalating tensions and to seek a solution through dialogue.

Maduro accused of narco-terrorism conspiracy

Legal action has also intensified within the United States regarding this matter. US Attorney General Pam Bondi said that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife have been indicted in the Southern District of New York. She stated that Maduro faces serious charges, including narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine trafficking, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiring against the United States. These charges were filed at a time when the US carried out airstrikes in Caracas.
