The European Union’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas called for "restraint by all actors" and urged to respect international law in a statement published Sunday night, as the United States remained vague on its future plans for Venezuela after the dramatic ousting of Nicolás Maduro.
The statement led by Kallas was supported by 26 out of 27 EU member states, with only Hungary opting out. Budapest is a close ally of US President Donald Trump, who over the weekend described the military operation that brought down Maduro as "brilliant", and suggested the US would run Venezuela on an interim basis without specifying an end date.
