While this is not the first time that the U.S. Government imposes economic sanctions on the Government of Venezuela, previous sanctions restricted operations involving certain debt or assets of that Government, or individuals and entities listed\u00a0on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons list (\u201cSDN List\u201d). With the E.O., if they are not authorized by\u00a0the Office of Foreign Assets Control (\u201cOFAC\u201d),\u00a0U.S. persons are prohibited from\u00a0engaging in all transactions with persons meeting the definition of the \u201cGovernment of Venezuela\u201d or entities in which they have, directly or indirectly,\u00a050%\u00a0or greater ownership interest\u00a0regardless of whether the person appears on the SDN List.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">Under the E.O., the term \u2018\u2018Government of Venezuela\u2019\u2019 includes the State and Government of Venezuela, any political subdivision, agency, or instrumentality thereof, including the Central Bank of Venezuela and Petroleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA), any person owned or controlled by the foregoing, and any person who has acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, any of the foregoing.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">The E.O. also authorizes\u00a0OFAC to include in its SDN List any person that is determined, in consultation with the Secretary of State, to (i) have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided support to the Government of Venezuela; (ii) be owned or controlled by, or to have acted or purported to act for on behalf of, the Government of Venezuela. Accordingly, persons who engage in any type of transaction with the Government of Venezuela risk facing OFAC Sanctions. Previously,\u00a0a person would be subject to this risk only if the transaction with the Government of Venezuela was tied to corruption, human right abuses, or other illegal activities.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">On the same date, OFAC\u00a0amended its General Licenses\u00a02A, 3F, 4C, 7C, 8C, 9E, 10A, 13C, 15B, 16B, 18A, 20A, to clarify that these licenses do not exempt transactions prohibited by the E.O different from the ones that are directly mentioned by OFAC\u2019s General Licenses. OFAC also issued General Licenses 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33,\u00a0and its \u201cGuidance Related to the Provision of Humanitarian Assistance and Support to the Venezuelan People,\u201d to prevent the E.O. from having unintended consequences on that country.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">Specifically, OFAC\u2019s new regulations clarify that OFAC Sanctions on the Government of Venezuela\u00a0do not prohibit U.S. persons from engaging in transactions involving the country or people of Venezuela, provided blocked persons or proscribed conduct are not involved.\u00a0\u00a0Additionally,\u00a0OFAC\u2019<wbr \/>s new regulations\u00a0authorize U.S. persons to continue to provide humanitarian support to the Venezuelan people, including transactions through the U.S. financial system for certain authorized activity related to food, agricultural commodities, medicine, and medical devices; non-commercial, personal remittances; international organizations; telecommunications and mail; the Internet; medical services; and nongovernmental organizations.\u00a0OFAC\u2019s new regulations also authorize\u00a0transactions with Juan Guaid\u00f3, the National Assembly, and individuals appointed or designated by Guaid\u00f3.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[:en]On August 5, 2019, President Donald Trump issued Executive Order 13884 blocking all property or interest in property of the Government of Venezuela within or transiting U.S. jurisdiction (the \u201cE.O.\u201d)&#8230;[:es]El 5 de agosto de 2019, el Presidente Donald Trump expidi\u00f3 la Orden Ejecutiva 13884 bloqueando toda propiedad o inter\u00e9s en propiedad del Gobierno de Venezuela que se encuentre dentro de, o transitando por, la jurisdicci\u00f3n de EE.UU.
