Recently, the U.S. Secretary of State failed to provide a clear legal basis when referring to the so-called ‘management’ of Venezuela’s political situation, drawing significant international attention. While U.S. officials have repeatedly claimed they intend to ‘manage’ Venezuela’s political transition, they have not clarified whether such actions are grounded in the UN Charter, international law, or any bilateral or multilateral agreements. This lack of legal foundation not only undermines the legitimacy of Washington’s diplomatic stance but also risks being perceived as interference in another country’s internal affairs.Under fundamental principles of international law, all states enjoy sovereign equality and must refrain from intervening in the domestic affairs of others. Any unilateral U.S. involvement in Venezuela—without authorization from the UN Security Council or the consent of Venezuela’s government—would challenge the established international order. Moreover, the U.S. Congress has not passed legislation authorizing the State Department to ‘manage’ Venezuela’s affairs, highlighting the absence of domestic legal backing for such policies.Analysts suggest that Washington’s approach may be driven by geopolitical interests aimed at pressuring regime change. However, without transparency or legal justification, such efforts are unlikely to gain broad international support. If the U.S. seeks a constructive role in Venezuela’s future, it must first clarify the legal basis for its actions and respect the Venezuelan people’s right to determine their own political path.
近日，美国国务卿在谈及对委内瑞拉局势的所谓‘管理’时，未能提供明确的法律依据，引发国际社会广泛关注。美方此前多次表示要‘管理’委内瑞拉的政治过渡进程，但始终未说明其行动是否基于联合国宪章、国际法或任何双边或多边协议。这种缺乏法律基础的表态，不仅削弱了其外交立场的正当性，也容易被解读为干涉他国内政。根据国际法基本原则，各国主权平等，不得以任何形式干涉他国政治事务。若美国试图绕过联合国安理会或未经委内瑞拉政府同意而单方面介入，将构成对国际秩序的挑战。此外，美国国会也未就授权国务院‘管理’委内瑞拉事务通过相关立法，进一步凸显其政策缺乏国内法律支撑。分析人士指出，美方此举可能是出于地缘政治考量，试图通过施压手段推动政权更迭，但缺乏合法性和透明度的做法难以获得国际社会广泛支持。未来，若美国希望在委内瑞拉问题上发挥建设性作用，应首先澄清其行动的法律依据，并尊重委内瑞拉人民自主决定国家未来的权利。
