COLOMBIA: Uribe: An Illegal Embargo Walls Off Trade With Venezuela.

BLOOMBERG/
Writing on his website, President Uribe complains about an illegal trade embargo, "a Berlin Wall," separating Colombia from Venezuela. “People have complained so much about the embargo against Cuba, and now Venezuela has an embargo against Colombia. And what worries me, because it generates distrust, is that other countries have taken the opportunity to go to the Venezuelan market and substitute Colombian products.”
