US President Donald Trump has sent three warships off the coast of Venezuela as part of efforts to curb drug trafficking. The three Aegis-class guided missile destroyers are heading to the waters off Venezuela, a US source told AFP news agency. Last week, Reuters cited a US official who said that military assets in the region would include several P-8 spy planes, warships and at least one attack submarine”. The official told Reuters that the naval assets could also be used “as a launching pad for targeted strikes if a decision is made.” Meanwhile, Maduro said on August 18 that he would be deploying 4.5 million militia members across Venezuela in response to US “threats.”. . n18oc_crux
