It seems Venezuela has cut off diplomatic relations with its neighbor Columbia, which in the olden days this meant war. Now, nations go great periods of time without diplomatic negotiations and I don't honestly think this immediate action will lead to war. However, I think it is an indication of the coming conflict between the two South American states, whether overt of covert. Columbia has the backing of the USA and seems to be doing well for itself in recent times. Venezuela, on the other hand, appears to be in decline from its previous heights and has found some support from rivals of the USA. A war in the region would be disastrous for both states, let's hope it doesn't happen.
