Venezuela Taking Measures to
Thwart President Assassination
Venezuelan opposition circles,
cornered by the success of
President Hugo Chavez´
political, social and economic
development programs are
plotting again to carry out
anti-constitutional actions
three years after a failed coup.
Vice President Jose Vicente
Rangel had denounced such plans
on Saturday and the leader of
government party Movimiento V
Republica, Willian Lara,
confirmed Rangel´s charges on
Sunday.
Lara said there are intelligence
information revealing that some
sectors, heartbroken by the
defeat of the 2002 coup attempt
and the presidential referendum
in 2004, are mulling over the
idea of assassinate President
Chavez.
The Venezuelan official remarked
that the government and security
departments have taken measures
to face an action of this
nature.
Lara added that the opposition
and transnational sectors are
developing plans to destabilize
Petroleos de Venezuelan (PDVSA)
and undermine the economic and
social achievements of the
Bolivarian revolutionary
government.
