Maduro decries US-Trinidad and Tobago military exercises as ‘irresponsible’

CARACAS: Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Saturday slammed new joint military exercises by the United States and its ally Trinidad and Tobago as “irresponsible,” with Washington increasing its armed presence in the Caribbean. Caracas claims recent US military activity in the region – which Washington says is directed against drug gangs – is really a ploy to overthrow leftist leader Maduro. This is the second joint training exercise carried out by the United States and Trinidad and Tobago in less than a month.
