US struck another boat illegally carrying drugs off Venezuela coast, Trump says | US military
On Saturday evening, the US forces, a ceremony celebrating the 250th anniversary of the US Navy on Sunday, said to thousands of sailors on Sunday, hit another ship with illegal drugs on the coast of Venezuelan. Authority, the US will begin to look at the drug trafficking on land, he added.
Trump commented during a speech next to Harry’s Truman aircraft carrier in Naval Station Norfolk in Virginia. It was not immediately clear whether he referred to a strike announced by the defense secretary Pete Hegseth on Friday.
During his speech, Trump said that the navy supports the duty of removing cartel terrorists from the water. No more boat in water. You will not find them. ”
The navy was also used to participate in an armed conflict with drug cartels, which led to four strikes in the Caribbean that the administration said that it was fast boats participating in drug trafficking.
Trump, if drug smugglers do not come from the sea, “We need to start looking at the land, because they will have to go ashore. And let me say that this will not work well for them.”
United Nations USA condemned the strikes -ABD, called a foreign terrorist organization in international waters, opposes Aragua’s “narco-terrorist” members as unjustified executions.
“International law does not allow governments to kill allegedly allegedly allegedly,” the UN said last month. “Crime activities should be degraded, investigated and prosecuted in accordance with the rule of law, including international cooperation.”
Navy celebrations come in the midst of the closure of the federal government, which allows some military personnel to work without paying. Trump accused of closing the democrats and trying to “destroy this wonderful celebration of the US Navy’s birthday”.
“I believe, ‘the show should continue!’ ‘This will be the biggest celebration in the history of the Trump on Friday night. Thousands of brave active officials will participate in our service members and military families and I am looking forward to this special day with all of them. ”
Trump promised to rebuild the navy’s shipbuilding capacity after warnings that the service is the danger of losing the dominant marine power status of the world.
While the US fleet has been the smallest size since the Second World War, the state subsidized Chinese shipyards have exceeded the efficiency of US shipyards.
John Phelan, a navy secretary confirmed in March, described the “urgency” as an incomplete element in the construction of marine ship and ordered a accelerated production program for Columbia and Virginia class submarine programs.
The navy celebrations come after months of turmoil in the Pentagon, while reorganizing the army, navy, air force and coast guard leadership of the Army.
Controversial Speaking to military leaders Last week, Hegseth was terminated by the “awakened” culture and announced new directives with “neutral in terms of gender” or “male level” standards for physical compliance.
Hegseth said: “The only mission of the new restored war department is: fighting against war, preparing for war and preparing to win, not because we do not want war in this quest, but here we do not want war, but we love this peace.”
At the meeting, Trump proposed to use the US cities as educational areas for the armed forces and said that he needed military power to fight what he calls “invasion from inside.
