WITH a partially operational boat fleet, and amid a push by the US to target drug cartels operating in the Caribbean Sea basin, DCP Operations Junior Benjamin says he is in support of any move that helps Trinidad and Tobago protect its borders.

On September 2, US conducted a lethal strike on a vessel in the Caribbean Sea which was allegedly being operated by a narco-terrorist organisation.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said via X (formerly Twitter) that the boat had earlier departed from Venezuela and in a subsequent interview claimed that the boat was “probably heading to Trinidad.”
