OFAC ADDS 2 INDIVIDUALS AND 1 ENTITY TO SANCTIONS LIST IN CONNECTION WITH VENEZUELA

On 18 December, OFAC advised that EX-CLE SOLUCIONES BIOMETRICAS CA of Venezuela, and 2 individuals (1 Venezuelan and 1 Argentinian) linked to the company have been added to the SDN List.  The company is designated for materially supporting the illegitimate President of Venezuela Nicolas Maduro Moros, including by providing goods and services that the Maduro regime used to carry out the fraudulent December 2020 parliamentary elections.
