We shall prove that close to each point in \mathbb{C}^n with coordinates of comparable size there is a point (t_1 , ... , t_n) with the property that no multiplicatively dependent vector (u_1 , ... , u_n) with coordinates which are algebraic numbers of height at most H and degree at most d is very close to (t_1 , ... , t_n).
