Actualité - USA Heads New Caribbean War Games
Willemstad, May 23 (Prensa Latina) - NATO troops, led by the United States, began the 2006 Joint “Caribbean Lion” military maneuvers on Tuesday, based in Curacao, just 31 miles from Venezuela.
Some 4,000 soldiers from the United States, Holland, Belgium, Canada, and France will be deployed in the Caribbean for 23 days, in addition to the 1,500 other soldiers that the Pentagon sent to the area in early April.
Although Holland claims to be the training leader, regional social and political groups and governments have called attention to the exceptionally strong US military presence, and attribute threatening objectives to it.
After ordering departure of three military ships from Norfolk, Virginia, the US Southern Command reported that actions Wednesday will be conducted by Amphibious Squadron Comdr. Donna Looney.
With reconnaissance flights, depth measurements, and terrain analysis, the United States could be assessing possibilities of succeeding in a military aggression on a country in the area, experts agreed.
