Trump does not change in the means. Venezuelan military aircraft can be shot down

The president of Venezuela Nicolas Maduro said on Friday that no disputed issues from the USA justify the armed conflict. In this way, he commented on the growing tension between the two countries and Washington sending the Armed Forces to the Caribbean region to fight drug smuggling.

“No discrepancies that divide and divide us do not justify the military conflict,” Maduro said in a radio and television speech to the nation.

Venezuela authorities have strongly criticized the strengthening of the US forces in the Caribbean area, which – as US President Donald Trump announced – are to fight drugs smuggling drugs to the United States.

On Friday, Washington announced the sending of F-35 fighters to this region, which are to support seven US Navy ships.

Trump announced at the same time that Venezuelan military aircraft “will be shooting down” if he decides that they threaten American forces.

On Friday, Pentagon recognized the flight of Venezuelan combat aircraft over one of the US ships as an “extremely provocative gesture”, and earlier Trump accused Maduro of managing a narcotics of the drug -white and increased the prize for his capture up to $ 50 million.

Maduro rejects these accusations. He stated on Friday that Venezuela is a country “free from growing coca leaves and fighting drugs but requires respect.” (PAP)
