VENEZUELAN HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATORS SANCTIONED THIS WEEK WERE NAMED ON THIS BLOG A YEAR AGO

Readers of this blog should note that we published an extensive list of Venezuelan PEPs who were guilty of human rights violations in 2014. That list, which was originally disclosed during a US Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing in March 2014, by Florida Senator Marco Rubio, was then published here, under the title These Venezuelan PEPs, all Human Rights Violators, probably had US Visas revoked, on August 14, 2014.  A number of those sanctioned yesterday were in that article; gentlemen, you were warned.
