The UK's reported decision to restrict intelligence-sharing with the Pentagon on suspected drug-traffickers' boats in the Caribbean is a modest yet symbolic act of resistance to Donald Trump's imperialist revival. Britain is said to have objected to repeated, lethal US airstrikes on alleged smugglers off Venezuela's coast which have been widely condemned as illegal extrajudicial killings amounting to murder. The strikes appear to foreshadow direct US attacks on Venezuela itself.
United States President Donald Trump has threatened Venezuela with incalculable consequences if the country does not immediately take back immigrants he described as prisoners and people from mental institutions. GET THEM THE HELL OUT OF OUR COUNTRY, RIGHT NOW, OR THE PRICE YOU PAY WILL BE INCALCULABLE! he said on his Truth Social platform on Saturday. He insisted that Venezuela had forced such people into the US and claimed without evidence that thousands of people have been badly hurt, and even killed, by these Monsters.'
