Iran, Russia, and China are gearing up to run a series of major war drills in Latin America in a show of force meant to signal how these militaries can reach the United States.
Venezuela, under the leadership of anti-U.S. socialist president Nicolás Maduro, is scheduled to host the war games in mid-August, according to a report by the Center for a Secure Free Society, a think tank that tracks malign regimes. Along with 10 other nations, Russia, China, and Iran will move their militaries into the Western Hemisphere for war drills that will "preposition forward-deployed military assets in Latin America and the Caribbean."
Maduro recently wrapped up a diplomatic tour of the Middle East in which he inked a 20-year strategic deal with Iran that laid the groundwork for an Iranian oil tanker to dock in Venezuela and offload Tehran's illicit crude. "The strategic deal between Iran and Venezuela is meant to mirror similar strategic agreements that the Islamic Republic signed with China and Russia in recent years," according to the think-tank report. Latin American regimes also are inking military pacts with Russia.
Yes.
They went to Russia because it was more dependable than the Middle East, now they’re saying its not dependable so they are going to Venezuela who has suddenly become more dependable. Venezuela did not want to be cooperative so they tried Iran (one of the originally un dependable nations). Saying the policy doesn’t make sense is extremely generous.
Biden and the Loony Leftist DEMONocRATS INVITE aggression.
Reagan would have counted to three and invaded at two.
LET’S GO BRANDON!
The Biden Doctrine.
With all the gays and trannies in our military along with the CRT indoctrination and placing females in combat units, we should be ready for them.
True.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS
Originally the first four were grouped as “BRIC” (or “the BRICs”) before the induction of South Africa in 2010.[2] The BRICS have a combined area of 39,746,220 km2 (15,346,101.0 sq mi) and an estimated total population of about 3.21 billion,[3] or about 26.7% of the world land surface and 41.5% of the world population. Four out of five members are among the world’s ten largest countries by population, by area and GDP, except for South Africa which is twenty-third in both.
Members of G20, as of 2018, these five states had a combined nominal GDP of US$19.6 trillion, about 23.2% of the gross world product, a combined GDP (PPP) of around US$40.55 trillion (32% of the world’s GDP PPP), and an estimated US$4.46 trillion in combined foreign reserves.[4][5]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS#Member_countries
Argentina, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Mexico and Turkey have expressed strong interest in full membership of the BRICS, while Egypt, Iran, Nigeria, Sudan, Syria and most recently Pakistan have also expressed interest in joining BRICS.[66][67][68][69]
In 2022, both Argentina and Iran confirmed their attendance at the 2022 BRICS summit upon invitation by host nation China, as well as confirming their desire to each permanently join the bloc.[70][71]
Almost seems like they don’t respect a country who specializes in ousting legitimate leaders and putting stooges in place and destroying said country’s culture, most recently in it’s very own country.
Peace through strength.
Word is Biden may lift tarrifs on China this week.
Does Biden still think it’s better to buy oil from Maduro than drill at home?
-
Yes because the chances are high that the Venezuelan crude is actually Russian crude bought cheap and sold dear. More money for the Biteme Crime Family, now getting ready to eclipse the Clinton Crime Family.
Venezuela and Iran have been tight for some time. Trump blocked some of Iran’s ships from getting to Venezuela.
Venezuela has also been importing Hezbolla, while our border is wide open to welcome them here.
And Iranian crude.
US energy producers roast Biden for demanding ‘companies running gas stations’ lower pump prices
The U.S. Oil & Gas Association took a hit at President Biden after he tweeted on Saturday that “companies running gas stations” should simply “bring down the price you are charging at the pump,” telling him that he should “please make sure the WH intern who posted this tweet registers for Econ 101 for the fall semester.”
🤣😂
Goose, meet Gander.
Thanks. Some people mock this information at their, and ours, peril.
And we have Joe Biden and the neocons to thank for all of this.
The Monroe Doctrine was a United States foreign policy position that opposed European colonialism in the Western Hemisphere. It held that any intervention in the political affairs of the Americas by foreign powers was a potentially hostile act against the U.S. The doctrine was central to U.S. foreign policy for much of the 19th and early 20th centuries. It needs to be expanded and applied today.
NATO expansion has consequences.
