The Business in Venezuela is getting worse. Chavez has closed the Columbian border. AFP is reporting: [1]
A crisis between three Latin American nations worsened Tuesday when Venezuela said it was closing its border with Colombia, even as frantic diplomatic talks to stave off war were about to begin.
Venezuelan Agriculture Minister Elia Jaua said “we have taken some measures, like closing the border,” according to the Colombian television station Caracol.
The announcement aggravated a stand-off between Colombia and leftwing neighbors Venezuela and Ecuador that was triggered by a Colombian raid inside Ecuador to kill a senior FARC rebel commander.
Interesting. FARC makes it’s money from drug traffic. FARC also was identified in this [2] blog, recently as supporting Obama for President. And of course, guess who Crazy Uncle Hugo is supporting? Work the math, people. This isn’t rocket science.
