Ghana Condemns US "Invasion and Abduction" in Venezuela

Ghana has strongly condemned the United States for what it calls a military invasion of Venezuela. The West African nation expressed alarm over the reported, unauthorized action. The statement specifically referenced the alleged abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. Ghana denounced the acts as unilateral, meaning they were not approved by an international body like the United Nations. The accusation marks a significant diplomatic criticism from Ghana. It places the country in direct opposition to the stated US policy toward Venezuela. The US has long called for a democratic transition away from Maduro's leadership. No further details were provided about the alleged military operation. The US government has not publicly commented on Ghana's specific allegations.
