Venezuela Helping Iran Smuggle Missile Parts to Syria
[AFP] Iran is using its warm relations with Venezuela to dodge UN sanctions and use Venezuelan aircraft to ship missile parts to Syria, an Italian newspaper reported Sunday. Citing U.S. and other Western intelligence agencies, La Stampa said Iran is using aircraft from Venezuelan airline Conviasa to transport computers and engine components to Syria for use in missiles. In return, Iran has made available members of its Revolutionary Guards and the elite Al-Quds unit to train the Venezuelan police and secret services.
