? Is the ball with him?
In recent weeks, the United States has mobilized eight ships in the region, and the tension has increased considerably eight days ago, when a missile destroyed a speedboat and killed 11 “narcoterrorists” in the words of President Donald Trump, who had departed from Venezuela.
Caracas criticized the unprecedented military attack and his planes flew over an American ship then.
Washington replied with the sending of F-35 fighters to Puerto Rico, and Hegseth visited the troops earlier this week, in addition to the destroyer, where he gave this interview.
Latin American Left Governments criticized climbing, especially Brazil and Colombia, while others, such as Trinidad and Tobago, celebrated the American presence.
“We know that Nicolás Maduro has been involved in all this for a long time. He has been accused and is sought by the Southern District authorities of New York. There is a reward of $ 50 million (270 million reais), and the United States government searches him,” Hegseth recalled.
Hegseth also referred to military mobilization as a response to China, which, according to him, expanded its influence exponentially.
