Venezuelan President Threatens U.S. With an Oil Embargo

August 15, 2005 8:05 p.m. EST


Matthew Borghese - All Headline News Contributor

Caracas, Venezuela (AHN) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez threatens to cut off oil exports to the United States, after tensions between the two countries mount.

During a recent speech in Caracas, President Chavez denounced the "aggressive" actions of the U.S. government against the South American country, threatening that Venezuelan oil "instead of going to the United States, could go elsewhere."

Tensions between the two countries have risen after Venezuela stopped assisting the U.S. in their War against Drugs.
