280:- The claim that "this article just repeats what the international recognition article says and thus this article is redundant" is false. The international recognition article has 54 words under the Venezuela entry, meanwhile the Abkhazia–Venezuela relations article has 155 words, including sourced comments from Abkhazian and Venezuelan leaders on the relationship. There are over 300,000 results for "Venezuela recognizes Abkhazia" on Google
300:. First off, Abkhaz sentiments towards Venezuela is not a valid reason to have a Knowledge (XXG) article on the virtually non-existent relations. Second, "recognition" is indeed a notable topic and is covered where it should be. The article is about the bilateral diplomatic relations, not recognition. Again, the article's content is limited to a few statements by diplomats. Knowledge (XXG) is neither a news collection, nor a Wikisource. --

Venezuela simply recognising Abkhazia is not a reason to make an article regarding their diplomatic relations. If they are to conduct in diplomatic relations it could simply be added to "

information on this article. All this article says is that
Venezuela recognised Abkhazia and that they intend to engage in diplomacy. That is basically it, there are no other notable incidents regarding foreign relations. Also google hits are not to be used to support arguments on wikipedia

so there is a significant interest in the relations between the two countries. As one of the first nations to recognize
Abkhazia, don't think that Venezuela's friendly gesture will be forgotten in Sukhum.
