Godfather questioned that “with so much technology and so much power,” the United States has not been in “ability to intercept a boat in the aquatic spaces of the Caribbean Sea”
Defense Minister, G/J Vladimir Padrino López, said this Friday, September 19 that there is “an unst declared war” after the deployment of United States ships in the Caribbean Sea, which he considered as a “military threat.”
The United States deployed at least eight ships in the Caribbean Sea to combat drug trafficking and since the beginning of September has eliminated three vessels that allegedly trafficked drugs, with a balance of 14 dead, according to US President Donald Trump.
“It is an unstalled war, and you see how people, being or not being drug traffickers, have been executed in the Caribbean Sea,” said Padrino López during a balance on military exercises.
“Adjected, without the right to defense,” said godfather in questioning that the boats, supposedly from Venezuela, have not been intercepted before. “With so much technology and so much power and not be able to intercept a boat in the aquatic spaces of the Caribbean Sea.”

Venezuela on Wednesday announced military exercises for 72 hours on the island La Orchila, about 65 kilometers from the Venezuelan Firm Land, and near the United States intercepted a fishing boat for eight hours last weekend.
The exercises respond to the deployment made by the United States, which accuses Nicolás Maduro to lead drug cartels and offers 50 million dollars for their capture.
The state television spread images about the maneuvers and, as said Padrino, “launched missiles of class C-802 and C-M90” and rockets.
“There has been no accident or incident -during the exercises -which always says a lot about the training of the Bolivarian National Armed Forces,” said Padrino.
