Trump deploys warships and marines off the coast of Venezuela
Three naval units and 4,000 marines ready to combat drug trafficking. Increasing pressure on Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro
US President Donald Trump has decided to deploy three warships off the coast of Venezuela to combat drug trafficking. According to US media reports, the military deployment will be accompanied by the sending of 4,000 marines to the Caribbean region.
The strategy against Maduro
The move comes as the White House intensifies pressure on Nicolas Maduro. The Trump administration has doubled the bounty on the Venezuelan leader to $50 million, with the aim of further isolating him internationally and undermining his domestic leadership.
The geopolitical context
The naval operation represents a further step in the US strategy to contain the Venezuelan regime, which Washington accuses of being linked to international criminal networks. The presence of American military units in the area could also have an impact on the regional geopolitical balance, increasing tensions between Caracas and Washington.
