Brazil minister says oil on country's beaches 'very likely from Venezuela'

Oil mysteriously washing up on beaches in Brazil is "very likely from Venezuela," Brazilian Environment Minister Ricardo Salles said on Wednesday, citing a report by state-owned oil firm Petroleo Brasileiro SA .

Salles told a Congressional hearing that "all indications" are that a foreign ship navigating near the coast caused the spill "accidentally or not" that is "enormously difficult to contain."
