US State Department spokesmen beginning to sound like a broken record...
Executive Vice President Jose Vicente Rangel says that the latest "declarations" against Venezuela by a spokesperson for the US Department of State are beginning to get the resonance of a broken record ... "it's scarcely worthwhile asking them for explanations since they are a more than little confused about what they are saying.”

Rangel was speaking after meeting with directors of the Central Bank of Venezuela (BCV) when ... referring to recent statements by US deputy spokesman Adam Ereli expressing concern over supposed close relations between the governments of Venezuela and Cuba ... JVR said "it's getting to sound like a broken record, its the same tripe they're regurgitating again and again!"

<snip>
JVR: The relationship between President Chavez Frias and President Fidel Castro is similar that that which Castro has with other governments throughout the (Caribbean and Latin American) region ... that's why I can only view the USA version as "disproportionate ... lamentably it is precisely the United States that has on numerous occasions interfered in the (domestic political) affairs of countries in the region."

Nevertheless, JVR characterizes Ereli's statements as "ambiguous and contradictory ... when the reporters asked the US State Department's deputy spokesman is what he said appeared in any way similar to US interferences in Chile, with the overthrow of Allende and the open participation of the CIA, he found himself in contradictions and didn't know how to respond."
