The American nuclear-powered aircraft carrier “Gerald R. Ford,” the flagship of the U.S. Navy, will soon approach the shores of Venezuela, showcasing the United States’ military might in the region, APA reports, citing mezha.net.
The arrival of a ship, which is often described as one of the largest in the world, underscores Washington’s intention to show power and influence in the Caribbean Basin and Latin America, where regional geopolitical risks and tensions between governments and the opposition are evident.
News of the deployment of the most modern aircraft carrier to the area of responsibility of the U.S. Southern Command was reported as far back as October. According to official sources, Operation Southern Spear has the aim of eliminating drug cartels in Central and South America and the Caribbean region, employing various tools of pressure and influence over governments and criminal networks in the region.
