Venezuela’s Defence Minister, Vladimir Padrino López, has announced the launch of Operation Cumanagoto 200, aimed in part at blocking illegal trade in arms and human trafficking from T&T.

“There’s a lot of smuggling of fuel, weapons, ammunition, and human trafficking along the axis between Macuro, La Punta, Paria Promontory, and Trinidad and Tobago,” López said.
