Diplomacy: United States remove Venezuelan ambassador residence

The tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela intensify: Washington now has the Ambassador of the South American country deprived of the visa - in response to the refusal of the Chavez government to accept the proposed U.S. ambassador in Caracas. Washington - It is no longer desirable in the United States: Washington has withdrawn the Venezuelan ambassador for the visa.

As a reason the State Department called the refusal of President Hugo Chavez, the nominated U.S. Ambassador Larry Palmer to start its work can be. The U.S. had an appropriate, proportionate and based on the reciprocity measure taken, said a spokesman for the Foreign Ministry. Palmer accused the government of Venezuela to Colombian rebels to maintain close ties.


Also attacked the diplomat to the work of the army. Observers did not expect an impact on the oil trade between the two countries. Venezuela is considered the sharpest critics of the U.S. in Latin America. Nevertheless, the two countries have close economic relations - the U.S. is about the most important customer Venezuelan oil.

Chavez in 2008 had already reported a U.S. ambassador.
