Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Wednesday defended President Donald Trump’s strike on a drug cartel-operated vessel off of Venezuela and vowed the U.S. will no longer “sit back” when it comes to “nacro-terrorism.”
In response to questions about the Marine strike Tuesday that hit a vessel in the southern Caribbean Sea while allegedly carrying members of Tren de Aragua smuggling narcotics headed for the U.S., Rubio said, “We’re not going to sit back anymore and watch these people sail up and down the Caribbean like a cruise.
