Australian prime minister says government has ‘long held concerns about the situation’ in South American country
The Australian prime minister says he backs a “peaceful, democratic transition” of power in Venezuela after the forcible capture of Nicolás Maduro by the US military, and has urged that international law be respected.
In a cautious statement, Anthony Albanese said his government was “monitoring developments” after Venezuela’s president and his wife were captured and transported to the US.
