Chevez Investigates U.S. Embassy Official

President Hugo Chavez said Saturday, he may expel a top U.S. Embassy official for allegedly plotting against his government from Puerto Rico. Venezuela's socialist leader said he has information that leaders of the political opposition were meeting with U.S. advisers in Puerto Rico to discuss how to prevent a referendum on term limits from passing.

Chavez said he was investigating the possible presence of a U.S. Embassy official in Caracas at this meeting. He did not name the official. He said if he confirms it, he will throw him out of the country. He is almost paranoid, don't you think? He can be a real threat to the United States.
