RAW IMPERIALISM!!!
No more pretense! Time to go full display and tell the world we are more guilty of the things we accuse China, North Korea, Russia and Iran of doing!
No regard for international law! We don't care! International law only exists for countries in the global south.
Sovereignty?
When your country is in the Americas? Countries farther away aren't even free, how much more those at our backyard.
Nah! We determine what sovereignty is.
We are going Elite Marines on the Monroe doctrine.
As the Absolute Dictator of the western Hemisphere, I can close the airspace of any country I want.
If you don't like it, so what? Who cares? What's you gon do about it? Cite international law? Mtchew!
I need Venezuela's oil, rare earth and other mineral resources and I'm gonna get it.
I can do anything I want.
But I'm not really a dictator. I am a Democrat...if you call me a Dictator, you will be seen as Anti American.
To all Airlines, Pilots, Drug Dealers, and Human Traffickers, please consider THE AIRSPACE ABOVE AND SURROUNDING VENEZUELA TO BE CLOSED IN ITS ENTIRETY. Thank you for your attention to this matter! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP
