Even though this looks bad, it could be an opportunity to see how much influence Venezuela and Russia have on the region, and to see how the GRU and SVR Spetsnaz operate and train foreign forces, should their presence be detected.

This is meant to threaten Colombia, which VZ hates and is one of the few hold-out capitalist democracies in the area, thanks mainly to support from Reagan and the Bushes. Of course, Obama and the Dems love Hugo and hate Colombia.

Ever since the Dems got into power, they have been trying to destroy Colombia, going after the military support and free trade issues that have to be approved by Congress. They haven’t gotten quite enough support to destroy it, though, so I’m sure a message is being sent by this joint exercise with two of the most aggressively leftist countries in LatAm, both of them with a history of supporting attacks against and within Colombia.

We are also trying to please Russia by opening the door for them in Latin America further than ever before, not to mention throwing Ukraine, Georgia, Poland and the Czech Republic under the bus.

The thrust of your statement sounds reasonable but for one leeeetle problem.

Our intelligence community has been scattered to the winds by the fools in charge.

Google Translator says it says:

Parliament today approved the entry of troops, ships and aircraft of the Armed Forces of the United States and Venezuela, to participate in an exchange of experience in this country for humanitarian purposes, said sources of legislation.

The entry of U.S. and Venezuelan military was proposed by the President of Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega, on an urgent basis, and approved today at the plenary meeting of 63 of the 92 deputies to the National Assembly, said the president of the legislature, the Sandinista René Nunez.

Congress authorized the entry of 10 military special forces from the U.S. to participate in joint training with the Special Operations Command of the Army of Nicaragua from 1 October to 31 December, noted for his side's first secretary of the Assembly, the opposition Liberal Wilfredo Navarro.

He also confirmed the entry of the vessel USWEST the U.S. Navy to participate in an exchange of training with the Navy personnel of the Army and 5 to 30 November this year, he said.

It authorized the entry of five soldiers from the U.S. Naval Academy to participate in a training exchange.

Parliament also approved the admission on a rotating basis of 30 soldiers, ships and aircraft of the Army Air Force of Venezuela to participate in a training exercise in exchange for humanitarian relief operations in Nicaragua Army personnel from 1 November 2009 to 10 April 2010.


I very much doubt this is going to happen.

Even the people in Nicaragua can understand the possibilities.

Here is one comment posted:

Acuerdense de esto. Loss militares norteamericanos van a ser invitados a salir del del pais y los Venezolanos permitidos a quedarse. Para Que?. Ya nos podemos imaginar

Remember this. The Northamerican military (soldiers) are going to be invited to leave the country and the Venezuelans allowed to remain. For what? We can only imagine...

The Russians and Venezuelans have already had joint military exercises last year, IIRC, which did not include the US.

Who knows what’s really going on, but perhaps the US insisted on being included this time around for various reasons. If you can’t beat them, join them.

Note: The article Presnsa may or may not be correct.

I did a quick perusal of several .mil sites including the DoD general site and couldn’t locate a upcoming training exercise that included Nicaragua and Venezuela.

I did see a recovery of dope with US mil and Venenzuela and a humanitarian aid associated with Nicaragua and US mil.
