Iranian bank in Venezuela

presstv.ir

The Export Development Bank of Iran anticipates setting up a branch in Venezuela in a bid to enhance ties between the two countries. The Organization in Charge of Supervising the Performance of Banks and Financial Institutes in Venezuela (known as SUDEBAN) and the Central Bank of Venezuela have ratified the decision. The Central Bank of Iran earlier gave the green light to the plan. The initiative is aimed at facilitating access to Latin America’s financial markets and backing joint investment in different areas. It will also support Iranian firms exporting technical and engineering services to Latin American countries. During President Ahmadinejad’s tour of Venezuela in September 2006, the two countries stressed the expansion of banking and trade relations. The Export Development Bank of Iran, established in 1991, has already set up a representative office in Kazakhstan, which is to be changed to a permanent branch in the near future.

Four Terrorists Killed, 30 Suspects Detained in Overnight Raids

American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON, May 16, 2007 – Coalition forces in Iraq killed four terrorists and detained 30 suspected terrorists during operations yesterday and today targeting the al Qaeda in Iraq leadership network.

Late yesterday, coalition forces raided three buildings north of Karmah associated with an individual known to facilitate financial deals for al Qaeda senior leaders. While coalition forces searched the buildings, a truck with its lights off approached the cordon around the targeted building. After issuing multiple visual warnings, coalition forces fired warning shots, but the vehicle continued to approach the checkpoint.

Coalition forces engaged the truck with disabling shots, stopping it. One individual got out of the truck and moved to retrieve items from the back of the vehicle. U.S. officials said coalition forces took appropriate self-defensive measures in response to the hostile threat, engaging the vehicle and killing four men. Meanwhile, coalition forces in the buildings detained 17 suspected terrorists.

An operation in Anbar province targeted individuals allegedly tied to an al Qaeda senior leader responsible for car-bomb attacks and attacks on Iraqi infrastructure. Coalition forces detained seven suspected terrorists in two connected raids there this morning.

During overnight operations in Mosul, coalition forces detained one individual suspected of associating with a known facilitator of enemy fighters with ties to al Qaeda, and three suspected terrorists tied to al Qaeda in Iraq senior leaders. Enemy forces left on the scene fired on coalition forces as they departed the objective.

Coalition forces detained two suspected terrorists this morning in a raid along the Tigris River near Tarmiyah targeting individuals with ties to a known al Qaeda leader.

“We’re not waiting for al Qaeda to strike; we’re taking the fight to them,” said Army Lt. Col. Christopher Garver, a Multinational Force Iraq spokesman. “We’re putting pressure on them, hitting their networks over and over, and reducing their ability to operate.”
