For­eign and Cari­com Af­fairs Min­is­ter Sean Sobers is firm­ly re­ject­ing claims by for­mer Prime Min­is­ter Dr Kei­th Row­ley that the now-re­moved radar in To­ba­go was de­ployed sole­ly to sup­port a Unit­ed States op­er­a­tion tar­get­ing Nicolás Maduro.

Days af­ter the Unit­ed States mil­i­tary cap­tured the for­mer Venezue­lan pres­i­dent Nicolás Maduro, Sobers told Guardian Me­dia that Trinidad and To­ba­go had “ab­solute­ly no role” in the op­er­a­tion, in­clud­ing any use of mil­i­tary as­sets or re­sources.
