Washington mulls individual sanctions following Venezuelan election

HOUSTON/WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. is considering fresh sanctions on Venezuela following disputed results in the country’s presidential election, with measures to be released if President Nicolas Maduro fails to comply with Washington’s demands for greater transparency on the vote counting, people familiar with discussions said on Tuesday.

Options could include individual sanctions or U.S. travel bans on Venezuelan officials, including those linked to the election. The measures could later escalate to other types of sanctions if deemed necessary, the sources said.
