(Bloomberg) – The US deploys stealth fighter aircraft in the Caribbean, according to the government official after two Venezuelan military aircraft flew through the US naval vessel in this area, reflecting the growing tension between the two opponents.
Venezuela’s Fly-by on Thursday followed an American strike on a speed boat allegedly carrying drugs from the ground. “This highly provocative step has been designed to interfere with our para-zarotic operations,” the Pentagon said. He said the “cartel” running Venezuela is “strongly recommended” not to interfere with other US operations.
Ten naval corps F-35 will be sent to the base in Puerto Rico, the American official on Friday said to strengthen Washington’s fight against illegal narcotics. Deployment was first reported by Reuters.
The Pentagon did not provide any further information about Thursday’s incident, such as how close Jets got to the American ship or where exactly the boat was placed at the time. Venezuel’s Ministry of Information did not respond immediately to requests for comment. CBS News said the aircraft were armed fighter aircraft F-16.
On Tuesday, the US intervened what she described as a smuggler with drugs, and killed all 11 people aboard a movement that attracted criticism at home and abroad because of the apparent use of mortal power on civilians.
Washington’s decision to send several ships carrying about 4,000 sailors, and the marines to the region have caused speculation that President Donald Trump – who undertook the US into more foreign floods – can try to push Nicolas Maduro in power. At the beginning of Thursday, the Venezuelan Socialist Silman went to state television and called on all military midfielders and more than 10 million militia members to mobilize to their local municipal offices.
Fly-by also coincided with the visit of Foreign Minister Marco Rubio in Ecuador on the road focused on the Assembly for the American pressure campaign. Rubio said that the US was ready for other strikes against Venezuela and indicated that Trump’s administration was willing to take even more aggressive steps.
“This time we will not just hunt drug traders or their small fast ships and say we will arrest them,” Rubio told reporters at briefing. “The president said he wanted to wage war with these groups because they waged a war with us for 30 years and no one answered.”
Defense Minister Pete HegSeth and Rubio defended the US strike and warned that it could follow more and said that the US government was to send a report to drug merchants.
