US unable to comment

"“We have captured some U.S. citizens in undercover activities, espionage, trying to win over people in towns along the Venezuelan coast,” he said, adding that one was a U.S. pilot taken in the convulsed border state of Tachira. “In Tachira we captured a pilot of a U.S. plane (who is) of Latin origin (carrying) all kinds of documentation,” Maduro said, without offering details.

A spokesman for the U.S. embassy in Caracas said he was unable to comment, citing a lack of any official diplomatic communication with the Venezuelan government." Since well do US embassy spokespeople are reluctant to comment? I find this to be quite interesting.
