Russia Condemns US Airstrikes on Venezuela and Demands Release of Nicolas Maduro

On this broadcast, the focus is on the reported US airstrikes on Venezuela and the extraction of Nicolas Maduro. The Russian Foreign Ministry has issued a statement condemning the operation and demanding the release of Maduro and his wife. The programme explores the geopolitical implications, with speakers debating the balance between the US adherence to the rule of law and its actions abroad. One view suggests the US may have broken international law to enforce domestic statutes, while another argues the US acts in its supreme national interest within its sphere of influence, citing the Monroe Doctrine.
