Trump's Gunboat Diplomacy in the Caribbean
The Trump administration has conducted 10 known strikes on boats off the Venezuelan and Colombian coasts, allegedly carrying drugs destined for the US.
A significant military presence has been amassed in the region, including several attack boats, a nuclear-capable submarine, an aircraft carrier strike group, a Marine expeditionary unit, and 10 F-35 fighter jets, totaling around 10,000 soldiers and sailors.
The unknowns in this display of force are substantial, raising questions about the administration’s motives and objectives.
No evidence has been provided to prove the boats carried drugs or were headed to US ports, and no explanation has been given for targeting Venezuela and possibly Colombia for "narco-terrorism" when they are not primary conduits for fentanyl or cocaine.
