🇺🇸🇵🇷 The United States is rebuilding military bases in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands — just 500 miles from Venezuela — turning them into a major staging ground for possible operations near Caracas.
New construction, resurfaced runways, and increased U.S. air and naval deployments in the Caribbean point to preparations for sustained missions beyond counter-narcotics patrols.
Analysts warn the buildup could escalate tensions with Venezuela, Russia, and China — all of whom have condemned Washington’s growing military footprint in the region.
