Why this designation matters

Sergio Jose Rivero Marcano is classified within the military and security sector of Venezuela's sanctioned apparatus. Designations in this sector typically target senior officers of the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (FANB), the Bolivarian National Guard (GNB), the Directorate of Military Counterintelligence (DGCIM), or the Bolivarian Intelligence Service (SEBIN) — institutions that the US Treasury identifies as enabling regime repression. The omnibus Venezuela sanctions program consolidates designations under multiple executive orders targeting the Maduro government, state-owned enterprises, and individuals enabling the regime's activities.
