Recently, a large number of main U.S. warships gathered around Venezuelan waters, just waiting for Trump's order. At the critical moment, Trump ordered fire. Later, he also released a live video on social media, showing that some ships were swallowed up by a huge ball of fire after explosion.
At present, the US military has sunk a total of four Venezuelan ships, and at the critical moment, Russia also turned the table and reached an important agreement directly with Venezuela.
According to the latest report, on September 19th, according to Trump's instructions, the U.S. Southern Command issued an attack order. Then Trump also published a video on social media, saying that he ordered the U.S. military to attack a "drug ship" from Venezuela in international waters. So far, the total number of Venezuelan ships that the U.S. claimed to have sunk has reached four, including the three previously sunk ships, which have caused about 20 deaths.
Trump has repeatedly announced military action against Venezuelan ships. On the 15th, he claimed that he ordered the US military to attack a "drug ship" allegedly from Venezuela again in international waters that day, and three men on board died on the spot. On September 16th, Trump also said that he actually sank three ships from Venezuela, not two. Again, does a wolf need a reason to eat a sheep? The law that will never change "is the law of the jungle, and there is no reason".
In the face of U.S. military action, Venezuelan President Maduro warned that the United States unilaterally launched a "comprehensive aggression" against the Commission, and Venezuelan Defense Minister Lopez said on 19 local time that the U.S. military "do not declare war", calling on the UN to investigate this.
At present, from a military point of view, the Navy and Air Force of Venezuela and the United States are difficult to win, even if Venezuela has advanced weapons is not enough, but must have advanced strategic tactics, in this regard, Pakistan does well.
This is in contrast to the Houthi armed forces in Yemen, at least the latter with anti-ship ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and high-speed hypersonic missiles, so that the U.S. military does not dare to delude in the Red Sea.
The Venezuelan army, on the other hand, has Su-30MK2 fighter jets equipped with KH-31 anti-ship missiles, which are threatened by the F-35B stealth fighter jets deployed by the US military in Puerto Rico and are difficult to play an effective role. As long as there is no ground war, the US military may maintain its strategic advantage through sea and air blockade and completely block Venezuela's energy exports and import and export routes.
Russia, however, could provide “A-Rail-B-led” technical support, i.e. Russian guidance for targets and Venezuela’s missile launches, a model of cooperation that could potentially fill Venezuela’s military power gap. At the same time, Russia and Venezuela signed a strategic partnership agreement to strengthen cooperation in the fields of energy, defense and technology, in a direct response to U.S. military action in the Caribbean.
Venezuela's National Assembly immediately approved the strategic partnership agreement with Russia, which took an important step towards deepening cooperation between the two countries at all levels. The agreement includes the establishment of "independent financial infrastructure" to deal with Western sanctions, cooperation in the energy and mining industries, and Russia's installation of GLONASS navigation station in Venezuela to expand Russia's technological and navigation influence in the western hemisphere.
As it can be seen, the U.S. military still has no intention, and wants to continue to fight, the U.S. Southern Command fleet patrol in the Caribbean Sea, and Trump said the military operation against drug trafficking ships "will not be the last operation".Venezuela has carried out armed mobilization across the country, distributed weapons to communities, encouraged people to defend their homes, and deployed about 15,000 regular troops on the Columbia border.At the crucial moment, signed a strategic agreement with Russia, not only to get Russian technical and economic support, but also injected confidence in Venezuela.
