U.S. Treasury sanctions two Venezuelan officials
WASHINGTON |
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Treasury Department on Friday froze the assets of two Venezuelan government officials, saying they have ties with the rebel group Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC).
Treasury designated current officials Hugo Armando Carvajal Barrios and Henry de Jesus Rangel Silva and former official Ramon Rodriguez Chacin under U.S. sanctions aimed at squeezing major foreign drug traffickers and prohibited U.S. firms or individuals from doing business with them.
