Trump prepares the deployment of F-35 fighter jets in Puerto Rico to combat drug traffickers
The United States Secretary of War traveled to the Caribbean island this Monday
The United States Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, and the Air Force General and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Caine, traveled to Puerto Rico on Monday amid the intensification of U.S. military operations against narcoterrorist cartels in the Caribbean. During the visit, Hegseth toured the USS Iwo Jima, one of the assault ships deployed in the region. There, he addressed the marines stationed on the vessel: "I believe this could be the most beautiful image I have ever seen in my life. Looking at these faces, looking at this Caribbean, on a floating island of American power, on the front line of the defense of the American homeland." "Make no mistake, what you are doing right now is not training. This is a real exercise on behalf of the vital national interest of the United States of America: ending the poisoning of the American people," he warned. The arrival of the high-ranking officials in Puerto Rico took place just a few days after U.S. ships transported hundreds of marines to the territory, as part of maneuvers scheduled for more than a year, according to Siul López, spokesperson for the Puerto Rico National Guard.
