State Department lists countries failing to cooperate on antiterrorism

   The U.S. State Department has placed Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Venezuela on its list of countries that do not cooperate with U.S. antiterrorism efforts, a violation of the Arms Export Control Act.

   The department, however, removed Libya from this list. “Libya has taken significant and meaningful steps during (the past three years) to repudiate its past support for terrorism and to cooperate with the United States in our antiterrorism efforts,” Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said in a statement.
