Colombian President Calls for Emergency U.N. Session.
Colombian President Gustavo Petro called on the United Nations and the Organization of American States to convene an emergency meeting. “Right now they are bombing Caracas,” he wrote on X early on Saturday morning. “Alert to the whole world, they have attacked Venezuela. They are bombing with missiles.”
Petro noted that the previous day, Colombia had become a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council and said the body needed to “establish the international legality of the aggression against Venezuela.” He added that his country has activated its command post at the border with Venezuela.
