The measure, announced in an
official statement released by the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry, also calls for
withdrawing Venezuelan diplomatic staff accredited in those nations.
Venezuela has accused the
governments of those seven countries of "interference" in its
internal affairs, especially the presidential elections held Sunday that saw
President Nicolas Maduro reelected to a third six-year term.
Those countries are
"subordinated to Washington and committed to ... ideological postulates of
international fascism," according to the statement.

Council on Monday declared Maduro the winner of Sunday's presidential
elections.
