Asked by a journalist about potential land strikes, Trump said he would order action “if we think they’re building mills for whether it’s fentanyl or cocaine,” before quickly pivoting from talking about Venezuela to Colombia, whose left-wing president, Gustavo Petro, has clashed with Trump.
“I hear Colombia, the country of Colombia, is making cocaine. They have cocaine manufacturing plants, and then they sell us the cocaine,” he said.
“Anybody that’s doing that and selling it into our country is subject to attack. No, not just Venezuela.”
Trump said on Oct. 23 that he was preparing to inform Congress of his plan to pursue land attacks inside Venezuela, but has held back as he attempts to negotiate the resignation and exile of longtime strongman Nicolas Maduro.
