ACT’s stance on the US kidnapping of Maduro and the party’s plans for the 2026 election campaign w/ the ACT party’s Laura McClure: 12th January, 2026
Sunday, 11 January, 2026
After United States forces kidnapped Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters put out a statement expressing concern over the move and his expectations that countries maintain adherence to international law. New Zealand’s response has been criticised by some, who say it does not go far enough in upholding New Zealand’s independent foreign policy and history of calling out infringements of international law. In our weekly catchup with the act party, News Director Castor spoke to MP Laura McClure, filling in this week for Simon Court. They asked about the party’s stance on the developing US/Venezuela situation, and about the party’s campaign plans for the 2026 election.
