'5,000 troops to Colombia' Did John Bolton's White House notes reveal plan
'5,000 troops to Colombia': Did John Bolton's White House notes reveal plan for US military intervention in Venezuela - after Trump freezes Maduro's access to oil cash and declares 'all options are on the table'
National Security Advisor John Bolton has been photographed Monday holding a notepad that included the handwritten line: '5,000 troops to Colombia.'
Bolton spoke to White House reporters while holding the yellow notepad and discussing the crisis in Venezuela, where the US now recognizes opposition leader Juan Guaido as the country's interim president.
The United States also announced sanctions against Venezuela's state oil company Monday in a coordinated effort with the main opposition leader to cripple embattled President Nicolas Maduro's power base.
It was not until after the briefing with Bolton that observers spotted the black scrawl.
Speaking on the condition of anonymity, a US official said 'we are not seeing anything that would support' a potential troop deployment to Colombia, which neighbors Venezuela.
The Pentagon referred a query back to the White House.
During the briefing, Bolton would not rule out use of US troops in Venezuela calling for security forces 'to accept the peaceful, democratic and constitutional transfer of power.'
'We've seen Venezuelan official and military personnel heeding this call,' he added, citing the defection this weekend of the country's military attache to Washington.
