“aggression by Venezuela’s armed forces would immediately trigger a regional response”

I’m guessing that would include Brazil.

From Wikipedia:

“Brazil’s armed forces are the third largest in the Americas, after the United States and Colombia, and the largest in Latin America”

Colombians despite their forever civil war are very nationalistic

I love them

Always have.

Colombia occupies a special place in my held together by modern medicine old heart
