U.S.: After Becoming Divided Over the US Offensive Against Iran’s Nuclear Facilities, Latin American Countries “need to decide which side they are on”
A senior official from the U.S. Department of State, whose name was not disclosed because the briefing was off the record for Spanish-language media, reiterated the Trump administration’s stance that the regimes of Venezuela, Nicaragua, and Cuba—Iran’s allies—are “enemies of humanity” and warned other Latin American governments.
Following the U.S. airstrikes on Iran’s uranium enrichment plants, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s (PT) government released a statement calling the attacks a “violation of Iran’s sovereignty and international law” (https://t.me/tupireport/22024).
Venezuelan regime leader Nicolás Maduro echoed the sentiment, describing the offensive as “a criminal act that violated international law, the United Nations Charter, and even disregarded U.S. law, putting lives and peace at risk.” (https://t.me/tupireport/21993)
Meanwhile, Argentine President Javier Milei welcomed the strikes, declaring that Iran “is an enemy of Argentina,” (https://t.me/tupireport/22011) while the conservative-led Paraguayan government, under President Santiago Peña, expressed support “for the people of Israel and their right to defend their existence,” adding that it was closely monitoring “the actions taken by allied nations.”
