PRIME Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has drawn battle lines and says any illegal incursion by any unidentified vessel into Trinidad and Tobago's territorial waters will be met with deadly force by local security forces.
Persad-Bissessar also made it clear local drug and human traffickers masquerading as fishermen would be "on their own" if they were caught by the Venezuelans in their maritime areas.
She also vowed government would take a hard line against any Venezuelan drug and human traffickers operating in TT.
