Marino escreveu:Uma coisa que poucos comentam: junto com a 4ª Frota iria ser criado o 6º Exército, subordinado ao Comando Sul, e sediado em San Antonio, no Texas.
Não foi criado, oficialmente, por causa das reações ocorridas aqui no sul por conta da 4ª Frota.
Quanto a tropas ou bases extra continentais, um certo país recebeu claramente a posição brasileira sobre o assunto.
Prezado Marino,
Estao requentando o pao! A forma organizacional abaixo se repete em todas as regioes do globo e nao somente na America Latina. O que nao entendo eh a gritaria contra uma medida administrativa que envolve a substituicao da 2a Frota (nunca houve queixas contra ela) pela 4a Frota. Porque nao ha queixas contra os demais componentes do Southcom que ja existem? Deveriamos deixar a retorica de lado e cuidar de nossas FAs. Afinal, o Brasil nao se diz contra a ingerencia em assuntos internos dos outros? Imagine os EUA se intrometendo na organizacao de nossas FAs?
