The lack of a clear legal justification and the precedent set by the operation have left others wondering how vulnerable they might be to U.S. intervention.

Russia and China swiftly condemned the strikes and called for the release of Maduro, who has been brought to the U.S. to face criminal charges. Iran and Cuba denounced what they called a violation of international law, their objections carrying an edge of unease that they, too, could find themselves in Washington’s sights.

Even major European allies, more cautious and measured in tone, carefully signaled concern about the operation’s legality while largely aligning with the U.S. on policy.

Taken together, these responses suggest the revival of old fears of American interventionism, prompting allies and adversaries alike to ponder where Washington might act next.

    And you’re a coward for not working on creating solidarity amongst them yourself. Way to attack those also oppressed by america. Try building a movement in your own country that doesn’t just let it lick the US’s feet before you go demanding that others do it in a country that has infinitely more guns pointed against them.

        Because that’s your only hope to stop your land from being invaded by the American government? Literally a majority of Americans oppose most of Americas actions when given context? You call others cowards but you have no real solutions yourself, your mindset is only a few degrees off from a Nazi think if you paint with such a large brush.
