Summary

Ms. Ersilia Soudais questions the Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs on the need for sanctions concerning the violation of international law committed by American forces during their military intervention against Venezuela, on January 3, 2026. This aggression against the sovereignty of the Venezuelan people mainly reflects the imperialist policy pursued by Donald Trump in what he considers to be "his" hemisphere, that is to say the American continent. The ground attack, in which the United States captured Nicolás Maduro and his wife, represents only the beginning of Donald Trump's international strategy. This strategy goes against international law, considered the best tool for regulating international relations. Furthermore, the American president reiterated his threats towards Greenland on January 4 2026, suggesting that he would “deal with Greenland in about two months or even 20 days.” In addition, Donald Trump explicitly attacked Colombian President Gustavo Petro, who denounced US aggression, insinuating possible military intervention against Colombia. In a climate of US interference, the non-condemnation of these acts on the part of the European Union and French President Emmanuel Macron is opposed to all the principles of international law, in particular Article 1 of the Charter of the United Nations, which stipulates that member states must “repress any act of aggression”. The silence of the Europeans is only the result of concessions to the US empire, which allows the latter to pursue its aggressive policy with complete impunity. Furthermore, United States interference does not stop at France's borders. In Indeed, Donald Trump is reportedly considering repression against the magistrates of the Paris criminal court who convicted Marine Le Pen. Thus, she asks him what sanctions and convictions will be retained and publicly announced by the Government towards the United States, to defend Venezuela's right to sovereignty. She also wishes to know the measures taken to avoid any American interference in the affairs of France.
