Belem: California Governor Gavin Newsom said it was chilling to see the U.S. military blowing up suspected drug vessels in the Caribbean and off the Pacific coasts of Latin America with no transparency.
“What happened to due process? What happened to the rule of law?” Newsom said when asked about the strikes at the COP30 climate summit in Brazil.
“It’s chilling to me to see those scenes of the United States of America blowing up boats with no transparency, no advise and consent with the United States Congress, the representatives of my country, with briefings that are laughable, that members of Congress, both the House and the Senate, including Republicans, have criticized.”
