Venezuela is not anywhere near from US. And Pentagon parades armor in Estonia down to a Russian border crossing and back once in a while.
And Pence asks Merkel to send German warships to the Kerch straight although she still has sense to refuse.
Your lips to God’s ears.
“A spokeswoman for Russia’s Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said the United States should pull troops from Syria before telling Moscow to withdraw from Venezuela.”
I’d take that deal

Yep
Just a point of objective fact.
When nations such as Ukraine and Estonia request US help, by definition, you are not meddling in their countries.
Ummm, ok. You get out of Syria too then. WTF?
Seriously though, we need to be firm but careful here. There is nothing to risk over Venezuela.
Equating 2,000 visiting Nato troops as “Pentagon armour parades in Estonia” is silly. Only an idiot can dramatize this a threat to Russia’s border.
A hundred paramilitaries in Venezuela are even less a threat to US border.
Trump is telling the Russians to get out of Venezuela not because they are a threat to the US, but because Putin is propping a despot who without foreign help(Cubans and Russians) would be long gone.
Well, that’s one take on it.
I’ll agree with the Russian for a change that the US has no business in Syria. We made a mess of it by financing and arming ISIS and now that we cleaned up the mess we made we need to leave.
You are exactly right. There are all sorts of oil platforms and lucrative mining that the West had a major role in exploring and funding that China and Russia would love to plunder.
Trump should send 1000 troops to the Ukraine, ASAP. See how the Russians like that.
I think THAT is a great plan. Not our problem but also we don’t want to look like wimps letting the Russkies put down those fighting for freedom.
We can just take out the paramilitary in Venezuela like we took them out in Syria...
It solely our choice.
Yes, of course. But why? And two can play any game.
Trump adviser warns Russia on military presence in Venezuela
You mean turning some commies into Le Boudin?
I could go for that.
Russia hasn’t been able to play THE GAME...since 1989.
They are playing tiddlywinks, now. That is what Putin has delivered. He bites at the ankles as his GDP supports nothing.
