Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has condemned recent United States military strikes inside Venezuela.
Lukashenko described the US actions as "aggression against Venezuela," according to a statement from his office. He said he condemns the strikes "categorically."
The US military has confirmed it carried out operations in Venezuelan airspace. Officials stated the target was illegal drug trafficking networks, not the Venezuelan government.
The strong criticism from Belarus highlights the geopolitical divisions over Venezuela. Belarus is a close political ally of both Venezuela and Russia.
There has been no immediate response from the US government to Lukashenko's specific remarks.
