Germany urges political solution for Venezuela crisis

Germany’s foreign ministry on Saturday called for a political solution in Venezuela where the United States attacked and captured leader Nicolas Maduro.
“We call on all involved parties to avoid an escalation of the situation and to seek ways for a political settlement,” said a written communication obtained by Reuters after ⁠a crisis team had met at the ministry.
“International law has to be respected … Venezuelans deserve a peaceful and democratic future,” it added.
The ministry said it was in close contact with the embassy in Caracas and a travel warning had been issued.
