Wise Latin American leaders will side with the US.
Between exfiltrating Maria Corina Machado to Norway so she could receive the Nobel Prize; seizing a sanctioned oil tanker; and tightening the noose with jet fighters flying up to the limit of Venezuela’s airspace – the pressure keeps upping.
Today, it arises that Trinidad and Tobago will allow the US military to utilize its airports in coming weeks, in yet another escalation.

Associated Press reported:
“The announcement comes after the U.S. military recently installed a radar system at the airport in Tobago. The Caribbean country’s government has said the radar is being used to fight local crime, and that the small nation wouldn’t be used as a launchpad to attack any other country.

Want to understand how big this is? Trinidad is 7 miles from Venezuela’s border.
“Hours after the announcement, Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez said her country was immediately canceling any contract, deal or negotiation to supply natural gas to Trinidad and Tobago.
She also accused Trinidad and Tobago’s prime minister, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, of having a ‘hostile agenda’ against Venezuela, noting that the U.S. military installed an airport radar in Tobago. ‘This official has turned the territory of Trinidad and Tobago into a US aircraft carrier to attack Venezuela, in an unequivocal act of vassalage’, Rodríguez said.”
