Kamla Fires Back at Venezuela’s ‘Bullying’

This report covers kamla fires back venezuela's with key details and context.

Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has retaliated strongly to Venezuela’s move to declare her a persona non grata. The leader accuses President Nicolás Maduro’s government of ‘bullying behaviour’ and political intimidation against Trinidad and Tobago. Persad-Bissessar has dismissed the move as a continuation of a pattern of aggression by Venezuela. She has questioned why the Venezuelan government is targeting her instead of U.S. President Donald Trump, whose warships are in the region. The Prime Minister reaffirmed that her government will continue to cooperate with U.S. forces in regional drug interdiction exercises, describing these operations as crucial to Caribbean security. The situation comes amid growing tensions following the USS Gravely’s visit to Port of Spain, condemned by Venezuela as a ‘threat to sovereignty’. The diplomatic rift widened following U.S. airstrikes in September — further fueling the standoff between Washington and Caracas and putting Trinidad and Tobago in the midst of the geopolitical crossfire.
