- No resolution.
- At an emergency Security Council session on 5 Jan 2026 the Secretary-General, via Rosemary DiCarlo, worried about 'the precedent it may set'; nothing was put to a vote.
- On 1 Sep 2026 UN experts demanded an end to US 'unlawful killings at sea'.
- On 16 Sep 2026 the UN Fact-Finding Mission told the Human Rights Council that Venezuela's repressive apparatus 'remains intact' under the US-backed interim government.
- At the 81st session's general debate (22-26 Sep 2026) Venezuela's seat was taken by the US-backed acting president, who thanked Washington from the podium. No Assembly action on the January raid or the boat strikes.
- None.
- ICC: on 24 July 2026 Venezuela's US-backed interim government notified the UN it would withdraw from the Rome Statute (effective July 2027), citing the court's 'political bias'; Rubio called the ICC 'corrupt and worthless'.
- The ICC can still pursue its Venezuela I investigation into crimes committed while Venezuela was a member.
- In Manhattan: Maduro moved on 3 Sep 2026 to dismiss the charges on head-of-state immunity grounds; hearing set for 17 Nov 2026, trial for 1 June 2027.
- As of Sept 2026, Maduro is held in a Brooklyn detention centre awaiting a June 2027 trial.
- His vice president Delcy Rodríguez, sworn in as interim president on 5 Jan, governs in close coordination with Washington.
- The US Embassy in Caracas resumed operations on 30 Mar 2026.
- On 31 Aug 2026 the White House announced 100-year concessions over 17 oilfields (~65bn barrels, about a fifth of reserves) for NABEP, a US-backed company in which the Pentagon takes a 35% stake, with a US-citizen board majority and a US veto over directors, including fields previously run by Chinese and Russian firms.
- After the 24 June earthquakes, nearly 2,000 US troops were deployed in Venezuela and regional hubs for relief (SOUTHCOM, 2 July).
- US-backed government-opposition talks opened in Caracas in August; as of mid-Sept 2026, no election date had been set.
- Next on the list: Cuba - under a US fuel blockade since January (still in force at the 19 Sept nationwide blackout), with Trump saying on 22 May he would likely be 'the one that does it'.
- On 22 Sept 2026 Trump told the General Assembly the US had carried out 'dozens of strikes on cartel drug boats'; PolitiFact rated his claim that they destroyed 97% of incoming drugs false. Cuba's delegation walked out of the speech.
- On 23 Sept 2026 Delcy Rodríguez promised elections at the UN without giving a date.
On 3 January the US kidnapped a sitting president, called it a 'law enforcement action', and nobody at the UN held a vote.
By September the Pentagon had a slice of Venezuela's oil on 100-year concessions, the regime's No. 2 was running the country, the new government had given notice to quit the ICC, and the UN found the repressive apparatus 'intact'.
By the 81st General Assembly in September the condemnation caucus had thinned out at the ballot box. Colombia, Chile and Peru had all changed hands since the raid, and Colombia's new government did not mention Venezuela from the podium at all. Lula said the Venezuelan people deserved to define their own destiny. Cuba walked out of Trump's speech.
Regime changed: one man. Everything else: under new management.
