"In conflict with" is a broad term. Defined strictly it's "A serious disagreement or argument, typically a protracted one" and they seem to take great liberties in how they apply the definition. Venezuela for example; while the countries may have disagreements on policy, most other forms of relation are intact (namely trade, which is still humming along seehttp://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/c3070.html http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/c3070.html). Such policy disagreements are similar to personal disagreements on a macro scale. A clever PR move though, I'm sure they're getting the attention they wanted!
