CARACAS Air Vapormax Flyknit 2018 Hombre Nike Negras Baratas , March 13 (Xinhua) -- The United States is using its sanctions regime to "intimidate" Venezuelan government officials, a Latin American legislator said Friday.
Roy Daza, a Venezuelan deputy of the Latin American Parliament (Parlatino), said the tactic was especially targeted at Venezuelan prosecutors investigating those responsible for the violent anti-government demonstrations in 2014 and their U.S. links.
The four months of protests claimed 43 lives.
"What is the administration of (U.S. President Barack) Obama seeking through the sanctions against Venezuelans?" asked Daza in an opinion piece published in the regional daily Correo del Orinoco.
"Evidently it's trying to pressure and intimidate officials working to defend the peace in our country and the legal branch, the Prosecutor's Office."
Venezuela's National Prosecutor Katherine Harrington is one of seven security and defense officials slapped by the U.S. with sanctions on Monday for alleged human rights violations.
The sanctions bar the individuals from entering the United States Hombre NikeLab Air VaporMax Flyknit Be True Azul Baratas , freeze any assets they may have there and prohibit Americans from doing business with them.
Harrington is investigating email exchanges between former Venezuelan right-wing deputy Maria Corina Machado and U.S. Ambassador to Colombia Kevin Whitaker, among others. Officials say the emails uncover a plot to assassinate President Nicolas Maduro and topple his government.
In announcing the third set of sanctions against the South American government in four months, Obama issued an executive order claiming "the situation in Venezuela ... constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States, and I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat."
The aggressively-worded declaration has been condemned by the international community and should be retracted, said Daza.
The parliament Mujer Nike Air Presto BR Zapatillas Rosa Baratas , a consultative assembly that meets over matters of regional interest, is expected to convene soon in Panama and to condemn the U.S. measure.
Serbia on Friday reopened a contemporary arts museum after decade-long reconstruction.
Opening of the refurbished Museum of Contemporary Art, Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabic said culture and education are preconditions for advanced society with steady, sustainable development.
She announced the government would focus to finalize the reconstruction of the National Museum in Belgrade, which was closed in 2003.
Acting director of the museum Slobodan Nakarada said: "This is a great day for Serbian culture. We are officially opening the Museum of contemporary art and in the next seven days we will work 247 Hombre Nike Air Presto Azul Blancas Baratas , because we expect that there will be a lot of visitors."
The exhibition with which the museum reopens features artworks from the beginning of the 20th century.
The building of the Museum of Contemporary Art Belgrade, work of awarded Yugoslavian architects Ivan Antic and Ivanka Raspopovic, was opened in 1965, becoming one of the landmarks of high modernist architecture of socialist Yugoslavia.
However, it was closed in 2007 as it had to be preserved and adjusted to new architectural standards and safety regulations.

Brazil's former president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva will stand trial on corruption charges Hombre Nike Air Presto QS Gris Baratas , a crusading federal judge ruled on Tuesday, adding more turbulence to the country's political landscape.
Judge Sergio Moro said that Lula, who served as president from 2003-11 and has for two decades been an iconic and powerful political force in Brazil, will face charges of accepting 3.7 million Brazilian reais ($1.14 million) in bribes connected to a sweeping kickback probe at state-run oil company Petrobras.
Moro wrote in his ruling that according to the prosecutors' charges, Lula was a "direct beneficiary" of bribes from OAS SA [OAS.UL] Hombre Nike Air Presto QS Zapatillas Azul Baratas , one of the engineering and construction firms at the center of the graft scandal, and therefore must stand trial.
The corruption case will also put on trial Lula's wife, Marisa Leticia Lula da Silva; OAS Chief Executive Jose Aldemario "Leo" Pinheiro; Paulo Okamotto, the president of the Lula Institute, and four others.
In an emailed note late on Tuesday Hombre Nike Air Presto Azul Blancas Baratas , Lula's lawyers again said their client had committed no crime and labeled Moro as a "impartial" judge who was on a witch hunt to see the former leader jailed.
Lula, speaking via video link, told an event held by his lawyers in New York that the charges were a "farce."
"What's happening isn't getting me down, but just motivates me to go out and talk more," said Lula Hombre Nike Air Presto Essential Zapatillas Gris Rojas Baratas , adding that he "will keep fighting."
Tuesday's events capped an incredibly choppy few weeks for Brazil.
Lula's hand-chosen successor Dilma Rousseff was found guilty by the Senate of breaking budget rules and dismissed from the presidency late last month.
Her successor, former vice president Michel Temer, has abruptly pulled the country to the political and economic right, and is trying to boost Brazil out of its worst economic recession since the 1930s.
Moro's decision may prevent Lula from making a political comeback in the 2018 presidential campaign. It could also derail any hopes the Workers' Party (PT) had of returning to power, or possibly even surviving Hombre Nike Air Presto Uncaged Ultra Zapatillas Blancas Gris Baratas , according to some experts.
