Hundreds of protesters from various workers' communities in Indonesia held a solidarity demonstration in support of Venezuela after the United States launched a unilateral military strike against the Latin American country. The protesters gathered at the gates of the United States Embassy in Jakarta, expressing their solidarity with the Venezuelan people and condemning the United States’ military aggression and interference in other countries’ affairs.

The protesters unfurled a large banner carrying the message, “Stop the United States Military Attack! Respect the Political Sovereignty of the Venezuelan People!” They also called on the Indonesian government to issue an official position on the US attack. They said their solidarity protest would continue and develop into a series of demonstrations in various cities across Indonesia.

Vivi Widyawati of Perempuan Mahardika, a member of Hands-Off Venezuela–Indonesia, said: “Venezuela is not a distant place; it is right here, in the hearts of Indonesians. Thousands of miles of distance will not stop our voices from speaking out against imperialism and injustice.”

The Building and Wood Workers' International (BWI), which took part in the action, called for broader international unity against US President Donald Trump’s blatant assault on international law, regional stability, and the very foundations of the multilateral system.
