Capitol Hill Briefing on Venezuela’s Threat
The Center for Security Policy is pleased to invite you to a National Security Briefing and discussion, entitled, “Venezuela and the threat it poses to U.S. and Hemispheric Security”
The risks to U.S. interests in the Western Hemisphere emanating from the Venezuelan regime have been significantly underestimated by the Bush Administration, Congress and much of the American media. By exposing the magnitude of the problems Hugo Chavez has created for Central and South America, this Briefing will provide a much needed corrective.
When: Thursday, October 30, 2008 from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Where: Room 2255, Rayburn House Office Building, Washington, DC
