“Attacks are coming and could be with Tomahawk missiles, drones, or troop landings.” Such was the bluntness of James Stavridis, a retired US Navy admiral and former Supreme Commander of NATO, this morning.
The former military man, now retired, told CNN that he believes US President Donald Trump is “prepared to launch air strikes” as a possible final step to “convince Maduro” to accept an agreement that would lead to his resignation as Venezuela’s president.
Their conclusions are based on the recent airspace closure, which Trump sponsored throughout Saturday, but also because the military forces deployed in the Caribbean are “too large to be dedicated simply to combating drug trafficking.” “This is a regime change,” he declared.
Stavridis is clear. Keeping your “feet on the ground” is always “dangerous” for all parties involved in a conflict. That is why the former NATO commander (who held this position between 2009 and 2013) expressed his opinion that “Trump wants to make it easier” and “Maduro’s resignation” directly.
