International Reactions to Maduro’s Capture Expose Global Apostasy from Christ’s Social Kingship
The EWTN News portal (January 4, 2026) reports on divergent international responses to the U.S. military capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, noting antipope Leo XIV’s anticipated comments during his Sunday Angelus. The article details:
European leaders calling for restraint ahead of an emergency U.N. Security Council meeting… China’s Foreign Ministry expressed “deep shock” at the “blatant use of force”… Venezuelan bishops called for prayer and national unity.
This coverage typifies the modernist reduction of geopolitical crises to purely naturalistic terms, utterly divorced from Catholic social doctrine.
