Venezuelan Armed Forces

The Venezuelan Armed Forces consist of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and National Guard, responsible for defending the country’s sovereignty, maintaining internal security, and supporting national interests. They operate military units, equipment, and infrastructure, and often participate in disaster relief and border protection. The military is overseen by the government and has played a significant political role historically. Despite modernization efforts, challenges include resource limitations and ensuring readiness. Overall, they serve as Venezuela’s primary institution for national defense and security, balancing roles in both external defense and internal stability.
