Recent US military activities in the Caribbean have attracted international attention. In collaboration with Trinidad and Tobago, the US military is currently conducting exercises that take place in close proximity to Venezuela. The development comes as the US considers taking action against Venezuela, which it blames for international drug trafficking.
Trinidad and Tobago, just a few miles from the Venezuelan coast, plays a central role in these maneuvers. The exercises, which take place over five days, include participation from the U.S. Marine Corps’ 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit. This unit is known for its rapid deployment capability and is often deployed in crisis areas.
The decision to conduct military exercises near Venezuela has sparked controversy in the United States. A recent poll shows that more than half of Americans oppose military action in the Caribbean, particularly when it comes to attacks on suspected drug boats. These disagreements reflect the complex geopolitical situation in which the United States currently finds itself.
Trinidad’s Foreign Minister Sean Sobers confirmed the exercises in an interview with a local newspaper. He emphasized that cooperation with the US is aimed at strengthening regional security. The Attorney General of Trinidad and Tobago told the Financial Times that the US may step up its military exercises with the country in the near future.
Tensions between the US and Venezuela are not new. There have been repeated diplomatic disputes in the past, particularly with regard to drug trafficking and the political situation in Venezuela. The current maneuvers could be seen as a signal to the Venezuelan government that the US is ready to increase its military presence in the region.
