President Trump said that the United States is not ruling out the possibility of a ground military operation in Venezuela. Yesterday, President Trump addressed the U.S. military at the Norfolk Base in Virginia, commemorating the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Navy.

Trump stated that the U.S. military destroyed a drug-laden ship attempting to reach the U.S. coast, but now drug trafficking groups in Venezuela have turned to smuggling drugs via land routes, which must be stopped. "They no longer go by sea, so we have to pay attention to the land, because they will be forced to go by land. I tell you, it's not a good outcome for them," Trump emphasized that the United States could possibly launch a ground military operation in Venezuela to "destroy the drug trafficking groups" and called on the naval personnel to prepare for it.
