The White House is seemingly open to sending up to 5,000
troops to Colombia as President Donald Trump squares off with
Venezuela's Nicolas Maduro.
During a press conference
on Monday, reporters spotted national security adviser John Bolton
carrying a notepad that appeared to say: "Afghanistan -> Welcome the
Talks. 5,000 troops to Colombia."
When contacted for
clarification on Bolton's notes and whether the Trump administration is
considering deploying thousands of US troops to the region, a White
House spokesman told INSIDER, "As the President has said, all options
are on the table."
