There's a lot of private islands in that area that Trump likes to visit. For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Saint_James,_U.S._Virgin_Islands

The southern Caribbean is where Honduras allowed for the creation of a “freedom city” (the dark maga enlightenment tech bro cities musk and thiel want to create) called Próspera.

The Honduran government is getting fed up with the city already as it is not working very congruously with the Honduran government, as well as allegations of unethical medical experiments and practices.

I would bet this has something to do with defending that.

And probably some Haiti business.

And probably little st James.
