Colombia, Argentina and Chile on Thursday called for swift withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine, as other Latin American countries rejected the use of force but stopped short of calling for a Russian exit.
Russia invaded Ukraine by land, sea and air in the early morning, in the biggest attack by one state against another in Europe since World War Two. Russian President Vladimir Putin said the attack is an effort to 'denazify' Ukraine.
"Our country calls for Russia to withdraw its troops and especially for it to respect the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine," Chile's Foreign Minister Carolina Valdivia said. But his Vice President Hamilton Mourao said economic sanctions may not be enough and the West may need to use force against Russia.
Peru's foreign ministry expressed concern and appealed for an end to hostilities, and Paraguay's foreign minister urged dialogue and a ceasefire.
