CARACAS (Reuters) -Venezuela’s government said on Monday it will close its embassies in Norway and Australia and open new ones in Burkina Faso and Zimbabwe as past of a restructuring in its foreign service that seeks to shore up alliances in Africa.
The closures are part of the “strategic re-assignation of resources,” the government said in a statement, adding consular services to Venezuelans in those countries would be provided by diplomatic missions, with details to be shared in coming days.
