US warship arrives in Trinidad, Tobago amid army pressure on Venezuela
(MENAFN) A US warship docked on Sunday in the capital of Trinidad and Tobago as military pressure on Venezuela intensified under the Trump administration.
The guided missile destroyer USS Gravely arrived in Port of Spain, joining the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier as it moved closer to Venezuelan waters.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro condemned the deployment, accusing the United States of attempting to spark “a new eternal war” against his country. The Venezuelan government also denounced the USS Gravely’s presence, labeling it a “hostile provocation against Venezuela and a serious threat to Caribbean peace,” and alleging a potential false flag operation by the US.
"Venezuela reports that it has captured a mercenary group with direct information from the U.S. intelligence agency, CIA, being able to determine that a false flag attack is underway from waters bordering Trinidad and Tobago, or from Trinidad or Venezuelan territory itself," the government said in a statement.
Officials from Trinidad and Tobago and the US confirmed that the warship will remain in the capital until Thursday to facilitate joint military training exercises between the two nations.
