检察官在美国指责了委内瑞拉秘密资助阿根廷的最近开始的总统， Cristina Kirchner竞选活动。 要求点燃了政治列在三个国家之间。
在星期三检察官告诉了迈阿密法院手提箱用几乎$800,000填装了(£392,000)被拦截在布宜诺斯艾利斯机场是付款从Hugo · Chavezz的总统政府。 委内瑞拉和阿根廷拒绝了指控作为政治上被刺激的污迹。
Kirchner, thrown on the defensive on her first week in the job, said it was an example of “garbage in international politics” and that the US wanted to “subordinate” other nations. “This president may be a woman but she’s not going to allow herself to be pressured.”
The row revives suspicions that Chávez has used Venezuela’s oil revenues to sponsor allies to try to forge a Latin American front against the US, which he terms “the empire”. If the charges stick they will taint Venezuela and erode the credibility of Argentina’s first elected female head of state. Both governments said it was an attempt to drive a wedge between Chávez and the rest of the region.
Venezuela’s foreign minister, Nicolás Maduro, said it was a fabricated scandal. “It is a desperate effort by the US government using the judicial branch for a political, psychological, media war against the progressive governments of the continent.”
Three Venezuelans and a Uruguayan are charged with failing to register with the US as agents of a foreign power. All were arrested on Tuesday night.
