Putin is taking every advantage of the situation by landing military planes just to make a point; so stay away from RTV. I think that the saber rattling will continue and Venezuela will fight it out with themselves.
    Many nations have declared that Maduro is not the legitimate leader. That doesn't matter to me but it seems to matter to you. They can't do the same thing and call us arrogant. Think that one through.

    No one is calling for military action. Russia is in no position to do anything about Venezuela.

    I don't see Trump as starting a war anywhere.
