Francisco Javier Velázquez, the director general of the Spanish police and the Civil Guard, said that "there is no news" about his trip to Caracas in the next few days to cooperate with the government of Hugo Chávez to delve into alleged ties between Spanish terrorist group ETA and the rebel Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC).

Velázquez said on Thursday in Brussels that the parties are making "all diplomatic efforts to arrange" the trip.

Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Ángel Moratinos had said last week that the head of the Spanish police would travel to Caracas once the government of Spain clarifies doubts about the indictment issued by the Spanish National Court Judge Eloy Velasco, in which Velasco said that there was evidence about the Venezuelan government's "cooperation" with ETA and the FARC, Efe reported.
