To snatch a five year old carrying a school bag from the street and tell the parents nothing as you send that child to a prison thousands of kilometres away is unalloyed evil.

I cannot tell you how absolutely infuriatingly this stuff comes across to Europeans.
When we say America is no longer a reliable ally, it goes considerably deeper than Donald Trump himself. This kind of complacent, condescending shit is a *huge* part of it.

I think there's something extra grim about the former Prime Minister of Estonia being the one doing this equivocating. A tiny country next to a much larger, hostile regime has rather a lot to fear from the notion of "we can kidnap a leader we don't like" being even partway normalised. Pathetic!
I have spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and our Ambassador in Caracas. The EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela.
The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition. (1/2)
