CornBarn 12/08/18 5:22:58 PM #1:	https://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/world/americas/venezuela/article222843240.html An announcement that Iran may deploy new-generation warships to Venezuelan waters is being regarded by analysts as the mother of all provocations because it could alter the regions geopolitical balance and almost certainly disturb the U.S. government. The arrival of these Iranian ships would upset the regional order, said Rocio San Miguel, president of Control Ciudadano, a non-government organization that monitors Venezuelas armed forces. This is going to bother all 14 countries that have borders with Venezuela and will generate an undesirable situation, she added in a telephone interview from Spain. Amid the growing tensions between Washington and Tehran, the Iranian government last week launched a destroyer, built in the Islamic country, with stealth properties that allow it to avoid radar detection. In one of its first official comments on the new Sahand destroyer which can carry helicopters, fire torpedoes and shoot down airplanes Iran said it could deploy two or three of them to Venezuela. Our plans for the near future include sending two or three ships, with special helicopters, to Venezuela on a South American mission that could last for five months, the deputy commander of the Iranian navy, Rear Admiral Touraj Hassani Moqaddam, was quoted as saying in a Reuters news agency report. Venezuela has become an important strategic ally of Iran over the past 20 years of Chavista rule, and the two countries have signed economic and military agreements valued in the billions of dollars. San Miguel said that despite the agreements, none of the joint projects have been successful. But if the Tehran announcement proves correct, that could prove to be very negative for both countries, warned Martn Rodil, an expert on Iran-Venezuela relations. This is extremely dangerous. Its crazy to send three warships to the U.S. backyard, Rodil said from Washington D.C. If it happens, the only thing it will do is that Washington will send an aircraft carrier to the Venezuelan coast.
