The US has lifted existing sanctions on Jorge Jesus Rodriguez Gomez, the head of Venezuela's National Assembly and brother of the country's interim president, Delcy Rodriguez.
The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), which operates under the US Treasury Department, on Wednesday announced the designation removal in an update to its Venezuela-related sanctions list.
Rodriguez, a Venezuelan national born in 1965, is the brother of Venezuela's interim president, Delcy Rodriguez.
OFAC lifted the sanctions on Delcy Rodriguez this April.
