U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered a stern message to sailors aboard the USS Iwo Jima, warning, "Those who love peace must prepare for war." This comes amid dramatically escalating tensions between Washington and Venezuela. The U.S. has ramped up its military presence near the Caribbean, while Venezuela under President Nicolás Maduro has activated over 5,300 militia units. Maduro condemned the growing military deployments as imperialistic and claimed the U.S. is using the drug war as a pretext.
