Venezuela Requests Military Support from Russia Amid Rising Tensions with the U.S.

As tensions escalate between Venezuela and the United States, President Nicolás Maduro has turned to Moscow for military assistance, claiming the possession of over 5,000 Russian anti-aircraft missiles to fortify national defense. In light of recent U.S. military deployments in the Caribbean, Maduro has requested additional support, including missiles and radars from Russia and China. Venezuelan forces are actively preparing for potential conflicts, conducting drills to mobilize troops and strengthen coastal defenses. The country’s defense minister asserted that any U.S. covert operations would be countered effectively. With both sides heightening military readiness, tensions in the region continue to mount.
