The vice-minister of foreign affairs of the U.K, Chris Bryant visited Venezuela this week and signed a memorandum of understanding to cooperate with Venezuela in preventing illegal drug trafficking. Venezuela has already signed similar cooperation agreements with forty other countries.
The U.S Drug enforcement Agency (DEA) and Venezuela’s government cooperated until 2005 when Venezuela accused the DEA of spying. On the other hand, the U.S is accusing Venezuela of not cooperating in the fight against illegal drug trafficking.
Bryant also praised Venezuela by saying that his visit has allowed him to “see the positive changes being promoted in Latin America.”
