The EU is calling for “calm and restraint by all actors, to avoid escalation” in the aftermath of the US intervention in Venezuela.
In the new statement by the EU’s top diplomat, Kaja Kallas, and signed by all EU member states except Hungary, it says that “the right of the Venezuelan people to determine their future must be respected.”
“Respecting the will of the Venezuelan people remains the only way for Venezuela to restore democracy and resolve the current crisis” it says.
There has been no comment yet from Hungary’s representation to the EU as to why the country did not sign the statement.
