1:51Now PlayingThe US military’s strike on a boat allegedly carrying drugs from Venezuela does little to dispel speculation over President Donald Trump’s true goal in the region.
US President Donald Trump is escalating his “maximum pressure” campaign against the socialist government of Venezuela with the deployment of warships, aircraft and troops to the southern Caribbean. Trump’s administration has called President Nicolás Maduro a narco-terrorist who has orchestrated drug trafficking from the highest level of government, and the US government has offered $50 million for information leading to his arrest. The naval deployment comes after Washington escalated sanctions and diplomatic isolation efforts against the Maduro regime during Trump’s first term.
