the Third of may in Venezuela from Colombian territory have tried to break armed men in speedboats. In the result of a skirmish with local security forces killed 8 people, another 15 were detained. According to the statement the official of Caracas, at least two of the arrested mercenaries – the security personnel of Donald trump.
Venezuela has accused the US and Colombia to armed invasion, while both countries deny the charges, claiming that it is the government’s attempt Maduro to deflect attention of citizens from the plight of the nation.
In the history of the United States there is a page like the landing at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba in April 1961. The story Americans don’t like to remember – it was a complete failure, and in fact retained the power of Fidel Castro on the island in the long term. Then the administration of two American presidents – Eisenhower and Kennedy developed a plan to invade Cuba.
Plan of operation in the Bay of Pigs was developed thoroughly, and there was a lot of components. Was provided by the activities of Pro-American “fifth column” in Cuba prior to the operation. Had planned a full military RAID to destroy all aircraft of the Castro regime. Was formed and well trained (and armed to the teeth), a group of fifteen thousand Cubans who had fled from the repression of the Castro regime in the United States. The troopers were supported by U.S. Navy and air force. In the future they had been promised help from the U.S. Marines. One word – the operation was prepared carefully and was a very large scale of the forces involved in it.
it makes No sense to analyze why the failed the Bay of Pigs – it is rather the competence of historians. In short, proactive and very competent actions of the Cuban government foiled the plans of the Americans, and then time to mobilize supporters, Castro was able to defeat the landing from American ships. But nobody argues with the fact that the Bay of Pigs was a large-scale American action aimed at the seizure of power in Havana.
the Story of 59-year-old comes to mind in connection with the events which unfolded in may of 2020, close to the Venezuelan capital of Caracas.
Now, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has announced that American mercenaries have tried to seize power in Caracas. According to the official version of the government of Venezuela from neighboring Colombia into the country tried to break a motor boat, which were met by soldiers of the armed forces of Venezuela.
the Crew of these boats were partly eliminated and partly arrested. According to the statements of supporters of Maduro, the number taken in ��len militants are just two representatives of the personal bodyguard of the President of the United States Donald trump. The operation to capture the two-millionth Caracas went as much as 23 American mercenary.
I hate to say that the government of Maduro trigger issues but issues come up by themselves.
Chief among them – why the overthrow of the regime in the most important country in the region sent two dozen mercenaries?
What is this squad supposed to do?
there did two close protection officer trump, given the fact that the risks they are exposing very large, and for even the most super-secret missions, in principle, it would be enough for one person, and not associated directly with the President of the country?..
It’s not all the questions I want to ask on this topic. On the other hand, can be treated skeptical to the position of the Venezuelan leadership will also be wrong in the end, they announced the arrest not abstract “two guards trump”, and a very specific American citizens.
President Maduro appeared on state television and showed a passport 34-year-old Luke Denman and 41-year-old Ira berry, 41. According to statements by the Venezuelan leadership, the couple were members of the security forces of the United States.
If this is true, then the question arises what purpose such a suicidal operation involved two employees of security service of the President of the United States. He will most likely remain unanswered.
Hardly an American RAID members were really guards trump, but the fact that they served in the special forces of the United States seems to be true.
One of the leaders of the “Bolivarian revolution”, the attorney General of Venezuela, Tarek William Saab earlier told journalists that the mercenaries had signed a contract with the opposition leader of Guido for 212 million dollars with the use of the funds “stolen” from state oil company PDVSA. The fact that the United States imposed sanctions on this company and allowed Guida to use funds from frozen accounts belonging to a Houston-based subsidiary Citgo company.
According to Saab, Guido signed a contract with a former American special forces soldier, a native of Canada and a veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, now the Manager of a private security firm Silvercorp USA Jordan Hudro, who is considered one of the organizers of the failed RAID.
Saab also shared in social networks a video with Jordan Hudro in which a former special forces soldier says that the operation against the regime of Maduro is continuing.
The same Goodro stated that he worked with two of the prisoners taken by people who have experience of service with him in the U.S. armed forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. According to him, they participated in the operation as a tool for��of aktorow-“supervisors”. He told The Washington Post that he contacted a lawyer in Venezuela and the state Department urging the United States to return prisoners back: “They are Americans, they are former “green berets”. Come on!”
the Venezuelan Opposition has already stated that it is skeptical of the information that distributes the government of Maduro. The press service of opposition leader Juan Guido (which is recognized as the legitimate interim head of Venezuela number of countries, including the US) stated that “the regime seeks to divert attention from the alleged incident, suffering from inconsistencies, doubts and contradictions.” They accuse the current government that this operation was a campaign to divert attention from pressing Affairs in the country.
At the same time, and Colombia, and the United States reject any accusations that they were sending mercenaries to Venezuela to seize power there. The representative of the US state Department said: “We have seen reports from Venezuela, but we have little reason to believe anything that comes from the former regime. The Maduro regime consistently uses misinformation to shift the focus from his poor management of the Venezuelan homeland”.
In Venezuela, it formed a big ball of contradictions when some believe the ruler of the country of Guido others defend President Maduro, and all accuse each other of dirty game. In such murky waters are hard to sort out whether the real invasion of even a small group of Venezuelan immigrants-opposition and American mercenaries, or is it just a PR campaign by one of the parties to the conflict.
