U.S. Demands that Venezuelan Opposition Dismantle ALBA

Caracas, Mar 11 (Prensa Latina) The United States demands that the Venezuelan opposition dismantle the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA) and suspend cooperation with Cuba if it wins the elections in October.

Rangel noted that Whitaker told his Venezuelan interlocutors that, if they win the elections, Washington demands the implementation of a total oil embargo on Cuba and the end of cooperation with that country, as well as the disintegration of the ALBA.
