Kremlin says Russian military in Venezuela to supply arms of pre existing contracts

Russian military specialists are in Venezuela to service pre-existing contracts for the supply of Russian arms, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday. Peskov also said Russia is not interfering in Venezuela's internal affairs and that the Kremlin hoped other countries would let Venezuelans decide their own fate.

U. S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that "all options" were open to make Russia pull troops out of Venezuela after two Russian air force planes landed outside Caracas on Saturday carrying nearly 100 Russian troops.
