January 28, 2019 .- According to Radio Caracol of Colombia, General Mark Stammer, commander of the Southern Command of the United States, will arrive in the next few hours. 

According to military sources cited by Caracol, the reason for General Stammer's visit is to "strengthen" ties of friendship with Colombia, to meet with the new military and police leadership and to review border issues. 

The visit comes shortly after the United States announced severesanctions against Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA , freezing $ 7 billion in assets and restricting the sale of Venezuelan oil to the United States.

During the press conference, the analyst and political adviser Ned Price, noted that in the notebook of the US Security Adviser, John Bolton, contained a paragraph that said "5,000 troops to Colombia."

Bolton refrained from making such an announcement. However, the visit of the commander of the Southern Command to Colombia could be an indication of an imminent announcement of deployment of troops or a clever mediatic maneuver of intimidation to the Maduro government.

The Donald Trump regime has intensified in recent days its policy of "regime change" to remove Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
