Guardian Criticizes BBC Over Use of ‘Abduction’ Term for Venezuela’s Maduro

The Guardian has reported that BBC journalists are not permitted to use the term ‘abduction’ in reference to the incident involving Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and US military personnel, as global condemnation grows over the alleged illegal detention.

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, The Guardian has stated that BBC journalists are barred from describing the incident involving Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and US military forces as an ‘abduction.’ The report comes amid widespread international criticism of the alleged unlawful detention of a sovereign nation’s leader on his own soil.

Independent US Senator Bernie Sanders, in an interview with Al Jazeera, emphasized that the detention of President Maduro constitutes an illegal act and violates constitutional principles. Meanwhile, Chuck Schumer, the Democratic minority leader in the US Senate, labeled the Trump administration’s actions toward Venezuela as ‘dangerous’ and stated that numerous questions remain unanswered regarding the incident.
