Venezuela condemns U.S. sanctions

THE VENEZUELAN EMBASSY IN SAINT LUCIA HAS DENOUNCED U.S PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA’S EXECUTIVE ORDER, WHICH DECLARED THE LATIN AMERICAN NATION A ‘NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT.’
VENEZUELA’S AMBASSADOR IN SAINT LUCIA SAYS THE MEASURE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN ISOLATED CASE AND IS AIMED AT DISRUPTING THE POLICIES OF SOCIAL AND POLITICAL CHANGE UNDERTAKEN NOT ONLY IN VENEZUELA, BUT A SIZEABLE PART OF THE LATIN AMERICAN REGION.
