The US president, Donald Trump, said Tuesday from the White House that his army has shot a ship that was loaded with drugs and that, apparently, It came from Venezuela.
“We literally destroy a ship, a ship that transported drugs, a lot of drugs. And they will see it and read about it. It happened a few moments ago “, The president said to the press during a speech at the Oval Office, before adding that they have detected a lot of drugs and “these come from Venezuela.”
This confirmation comes after Maduro’s threats during this Monday, when the president of Venezuela denounced the placement
Given this event, the Venezuelan president warned Trump that “Marco Rubio wants to stain his blood hands,” and He assured that Venezuela is “prepared to answer”, coming to say that he will declare the country “in armed struggle” if Washington “sets a foot in Venezuela.”
Well, the moment of the answer could be closer than ever after Trump’s announcement, which has subsequently been confirmed by the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, that has defined it as a “Lethal attack”.
“As reported by the president of the United States a few moments, today the United States Army carried out a lethal attack in the southern Caribbean against a drug ship that had left Venezuela And that he was being operated by an organization designated as a narcoterrorist, “Rubio wrote in a message on his X account.
This message occurs a few hours before Rubio visits Mexico, where he will remain for two days, due to an official visit. In the meeting that the US Secretary of State will have with the representatives of the Mexican government, the security crisis and the need to strengthen the fight against Mexican cartels and against the Venezuelan will be addressed Los Soles poster, which has been mentioned since the US government for a few weeks.
With regard to the attack carried out by US military forces, this opens an unpredictable scenario, before which surely Nicolás Maduro will speak and do it with forcefulness, as he did this Monday.
