CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — Venezuela has halted communication with a top US diplomat in the wake of President Hugo Chavez's death, hardening its anti-US stance ahead of an election next month.
Foreign Minister Elias Jaua said yesterday that “any type of contact has been postponed” with US Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs Roberta Jacobson, who had reportedly reached out to Venezuela's government before Chavez's death.
