US bans arms sales to Venezuela
5/17/2006
 

          WASHINGTON, May 16 (AFP): The United States Monday imposed military sanctions on Venezuela, a main oil supplier, accusing President Hugo Chavez's leftist government of failing to cooperate in the US- led "war on terror."
Venezuela "earned their spot honestly" on the list of countries whose cooperation is unsatisfactory, said US State Department spokesman Sean McCormack.
McCormack cited US concerns over Caracas' ties with Iran and Cuba, which Washington considers state sponsors of terrorism, and their "intelligence- sharing relationship, which has made it very difficult for the United States to work on anti-terrorism efforts with them (Venezuela)."
