With American warships and troops expected to arrive in Caribbean waters within days, Foreign and Caricom Affairs Minister Sean Sobers is once again moving to quell public concerns about their presence.
His assurance came just one day after Venezuelan Ambassador Alvaro Sanchez Cordero reiterated his warning that the US naval convoy represents a threat not only to Venezuela but to the wider region.
