Trinidadian fishers fear getting caught in the crossfire amid Trump’s Caribbean ‘war on drugs’

Trinidadian fishers are expressing deep concerns over the potential dangers posed by the U.S. war on drugs in the Caribbean, particularly under Trump's administration. As U.S. warships increase their presence in the region, local fishers fear they may become collateral damage in the ongoing conflict. This situation is critical as it not only threatens the livelihoods of these fishers but also raises questions about the effectiveness and consequences of U.S. foreign policy in the Caribbean. The proximity of Trinidad to Venezuela adds another layer of complexity, making the stakes even higher for those who rely on the sea for their daily sustenance.
