Will we be witness to an upcoming invasion ?

The Last few days I have seen a lot about the situation in Venezuela. Today I saw some clips from some OAS meeting.

While watching this I remembered USA is a Member of this organisation.

Will we see an American intervention in Venezuela in a very near future
Supported by other members of this OAS. ?

If US gets stuck in Venezuela it would be most amusing.

mapuc · 01-24-19, 07:23 PM

Forgot a thing. In the situation in Venezuela, they showed a press conference with the Russian Foreign Minister who said (Danish subtitle)
- No country has the right to interfere in the internal affairs of another country
(From my memory)

I could very well imagine the other members of this OAS putting USA under pressure, to intervene, if the situation in Venezuela goes from bad to worse

We will be damned if we do and damned if we don't.

Let's ask Putin to invade Venezuela, and Mexico. After all both countries have no better or more stable president, and Russia isn't even communist anymore. Win win.

We can place MRBMs in Cuba if we need to, thanks.

Yes, definitely a win win for all.

If I were America I'd be staying well out of it.

Venezuela is so yesterday.
I'm holding out for Argentina.

Why is it that the USA is always the country expected to intervene in trouble spots? Whats wrong with any of the other 194?

As far as I am concerned, the USA has done enough intervening for the remainder of this century...

I bet it turns out it would have been orders of magnitude cheaper to just pay that $5.7 for the border wall, but nooooooo!

Nation building is sure to work on the hundredth attempt, the odds can't hold out forever. LMAO

Another thought(sometimes my imagination runs away with me)

Maduro fear an American intervention, so he invites Russian and/or Chinese force to his country as some "Trade friendly soldier campaign"

Never say the Russians have no sense of humour.

No full US invasion in Venezuela, they have stronger weapons, the US still is one of the biggest if not biggest customer of Venezuela oil. Stop buying it... hurts much, the generals Maduro depend son are not loyal to Maduro, they are loyal to their corrupt income.

Possible though ghtat there will be US special operations of limited scale if Madura starts to threaten US citizens in the country. Evacuation and rescue operations.

The Russians better do not send troops there. This current mad dog in the WH may not take it well. And after all its the US's backyard, like the Crimean was Russia's. Not fair, not just - but thats the world we live in.

A certain word popped up in my mind when he said those words.

I feel your pain. At least in this case it's a neighboring problem, plus any country near the equator has an advantage for space launches.
