RUSSIA has sent supersonic bombers capable of carrying nuclear missiles to one of Venezuelas islands in the Caribbean Sea, according to reports.
This follows news earlier in the month that the former-Soviet state was planning to set up its first military base in the Caribbean after striking a deal with cash-strapped Venezuela.
Venezuelas socialist president Nicolas Maduro did not object to the proposals, according to Russian newspaper Nezavisimaya Gazeta.
The deployment will represent the one of the largest postings of the Russian military in the region since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962.
Under Venezuelan law, military bases cannot be established by foreign nations in the country, but a temporary deployment of warplanes is possible.
Maduro and his left-wing administration has an acrimonious relationship with Washington.
Russian military expert Colonel Shamil Gareyev said establishing a long-term presence in Venezuela was an economically sensible decision if more joint exercises are to take place.
"Our strategic bombers will not only not have to return to Russia every time, but also won't perform aerial refueling while on a patrol mission in the Americas, he added.
Russian military Colonel Eduard Rodyukov said the move was in response to US president Donald Trumps threat to scrap nuclear treaties.
The US recently gave Russia 60 days to comply with a treaty banning the development of intermediate range nuclear missiles or the agreement would be scrapped altogether.
US officials accused Russia of developing missiles in violation of the treaty, a charge Russia has strongly denied.
The supersonic bombers nicknamed White Swans are capable of carrying short-range nuclear missiles.
The planes can fly over 7,500 miles without refuelling.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo blasted the move on Twitter: Russias government has sent bombers halfway around the world to Venezuela.
The Russian and Venezuelan people should see this for what it is: two corrupt governments squandering public funds, and squelching liberty and freedom while their people suffer.

Venezuela Agreed To Let Russia Set Up A Bomber Outpost On This Caribbean Island: Reports

“Russian media outlets are reporting that the Kremlin is planning to establish a forward outpost on the Venezuelan island of La Orchila in the Caribbean Sea and base nuclear-capable Tu-160 Blackjack bombers, two of which just wrapped up a recent deployment to the country, at the site. If true, this could help bolster the embattled regime of Venezuelas dictatorial president Nicolás Maduro and would significantly change the strategic reality in the Western Hemisphere for the United States.”

In the Soviet Union, it’s all a conspiracy, you know—everything!
Really does not make much difference. Russia as we can destroy each other with absolute certainty. If they launched bombers from Venezuela in a nuclear strike our missile silos would be empty as their warheads would have already taken out Russia as theirs would have done to us. Our sub fleet is death from the oceans. They will finish anything left that is worthy of destruction.
Roughly half of our nuclear forces are on these boomers. One boomer can make Russia a non functional society with its MIRV ed warheads on its many missiles. We have many boomers. Russia can do the same to us but not as most assuredly total destruction.
The purpose of the boomers is if the USA has a first strike against our missiles and bombers and assuming total success, the boomers will destroy any nation. Boomers are the ultimate death machine from the depths of the Arctic, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.
If there’s a nuclear war, it’s important that no one in DC survives it, or even thinks they have a chance of surviving it.
Because the moment those f-ers think they can get rid of us while staying alive themselves, those missiles are going to get launched.
Nuclear war. While we’re at it take out 13 arab capitols as well as Mecca and Medina.
Thank you for your contribution.
What are "boomers?"
Regards,
“What are “boomers?””
Nuclear subs that carry intercontinental ballistic missiles with multiple warheads on each missile.
“Russia can do the same to us but not as most assuredly total destruction.”
That’s MAD!
What about that West Virginia resort that is also an underground survival city for Washington elites & their staffs & families?
Anyway, we were ready to go to war over Russian nukes or bombers staged on Cuba, as well as the Punte Huete airfield in communist Nicaragua, so what’s different now if the Monroe Doctrine is still in effect?
"Colonel Eduard Rodyukov, a Corresponding Member of the Academy of Military Sciences, in turn, told Nezavisimaya Gazeta that "the arrival of Russias Tu-160 strategic bombers to Central America is kind of a signal to Trump to make him realize that abandoning nuclear disarmament treaties will have a boomerang effect."
Deploying TU-160s in South America just to send a message will have a boomerang effect too.
Russia is our #1 enemy. Has been for decades.
