Caracas, Venezuela | AFP | Venezuela accused the United States on Monday of “psychological terrorism” designed to bring down the government after it was included in a list of eight countries targeted by a travel ban.
“These types of lists….are incompatible with international law and constitute in themselves a form of psychological and political terrorism,” the foreign ministry said in a statement.
Venezuela was added Sunday to a new list of countries targeted by the US ban, due to poor security and a lack of cooperation with American authorities.
The restrictions on Venezuela were limited to officials from a long list of government agencies and their families, while full travel bans were placed on nationals from the other seven countries, including North Korea and Chad.
