PRIME MINISTER Kamla Persad-Bissessar says the US is the only country in the world which can defend Trinidad and Tobago against any external threat.
Persad-Bissessar made this statement as she gave arguably her strongest defence to date of the ongoing US military deployment in the Southern Caribbean and installation of a US military radar system in Tobago.
She also warned that criticism of the US and its actions could result in an estimated 350,000 Trinbagonians with US visas, having them revoked.
