More than seventy countries and international organizations expressed their concerns over the January 6 United States Capitol attack and condemned the violence, with some specifically condemning President Donald Trump's own role in inciting the attack.[1][2] Foreign leaders, diplomats, politicians, and institutions expressed shock, outrage, and condemnation of the events.[3][4] Multiple world leaders made a call for peace, describing the assault as "an attack on democracy".[5] The leaders of some countries, including Brazil, Poland, and Hungary, declined to condemn the situation, and described it as an internal U.S. affair.[6]
As early as January 2021, a few European security officials described the events as an attempted coup.[7]
