On the 18th, the U.S. Embassy in Trinidad and Tobago issued a warning reminding U.S. citizens to avoid visiting any U.S. government facilities in the country in the near future and urging people to pay attention to the surrounding environment.

According to US media reports, Roger Alexander, Minister of Homeland Security of Trinidad and Tobago, said the warning was based on threats against American citizens in Trinidad and Tobago. According to the US side, this may be related to the ongoing tension in the Caribbean.

Trinidad and Tobago faces Venezuela across the sea, and the nearest point is only about 11 kilometers. Recently, relations between Venezuela and the United States have continued to be tense. The United States deployed several warships in the Caribbean waters near Venezuela on the grounds of so-called "cracking down on Latin American drug trafficking cartels" and sank several so-called "drug ships", resulting in nearly 30 deaths, including two fishermen from Trinidad and Tobago.
