General secretary Eddie Dempsey said: “We condemn the illegal military attack carried out by the United States of America on Venezuela which resulted in President Maduro being kidnapped by US special forces.
“In accordance with international law and respect for sovereign nations, the UK Government must demand the immediate cessation of military hostilities towards Venezuela and the return of its President.
“Only by following the UN Charter can we create a framework for peace, stability and mutual respect between nations.
“We send our solidarity to the people of Venezuela and stand with them against this violent intervention.”
