The U.S. Navy announced that the USS Gerald R. Ford, the Pentagon’s largest aircraft carrier, along with its strike group, entered the Caribbean Sea today, Sunday.
The statement claimed that the USS Gerald R. ford arrived with a mission to eliminate transnational criminal organizations.
The United States justifies this provocative move by citing a need to strengthen its military presence in the U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) region.
Media analysts interpret this action as part of increased U.S.tensions and provocations against Venezuela in the Caribbean sea.
The USS Gerald R. Ford carries over 4,000 sailors and dozens of tactical aircraft.
This deployment comes amid recent weeks when Washington has stationed troops near Venezuela’s borders and throughout the Caribbean under the pretext of counter-narcotics operations – actions that violate international laws according to critics.Additionally, U.S. forces have conducted a total of 17 operations targeting boats across both the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean.
