NYC Mayor Calls U.S. Capture of Venezuelan Leader an "Act of War"

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has strongly condemned President Donald Trump's capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. Mamdani labeled the military operation an "act of war." He pledged that his administration's focus would be on protecting the residents of New York City. The capture of the foreign leader by U.S. forces is an unprecedented event in modern hemispheric relations. The Venezuelan government has not yet issued an official statement. Mayor Mamdani did not specify what protective measures the city might take. The White House has not responded to the mayor's comments.
