Caracas, 05 Mar. AVN.- US military aggregate in Venezuela Dave Delmonaco
counts on 24 hours to leave the country, since conspiratorial plans on his
behalf have been confirmed, informed vice-president Nicolas Maduro on
Tuesday.

In a press conference after a meeting held with the Cabinet, high ranking
military command and socialist governors, Maduro informed that the US
officer has devoted to contact Venezuelan active-duty soldiers during the
last weeks to foster a destabilizing plan in the country.

"This official has been looking for active-duty soldiers in Venezuela to
propose destabilizing projects to the Armed Force," the Vice-president said.

In addition, Maduro informed that a communique will be issued in the coming
hours by the Bolivarian Government to inform the United States embassy in
Caracas about the decision of expelling the Air Force aggregate.

"We would like to denounce that we are investigating other elements behind
this entire poisonous scene which seeks to disturb and attack the social
life of our homeland," he added.

Nicolas Maduro stressed that the hard moments lived in the country and the
region as a result of President Chavez's delicate health condition are
trying to be used by national and international right wing sectors for
political destabilization.

The entire team of government, together with Bolivarian governors and
mayors, are aware of these destabilizing plans and continue working to keep
peace in the country, Maduro affirmed.

"We know were we must redouble efforts, the work. We have made a series of
decisions to reinforce the monitoring of particular situations," he
informed.

Merida, March 5th 2013 (Venezuelanalysis.com) – Vice-president Nicolas
Maduro today denounced destabilisation plans by the international
and Venezuelan right wing, announcing the expulsion of two US officials for
threatening military security. He also implied that Chavez’s cancer was
“caused by enemies of Venezuela”.

*Right-wing destabilisation plans*

Maduro made the announcement today just after midday, following a meeting
this morning with Venezuela's political military leadership.

Maduro pronounced the expulsion of diplomat David del Monaco, and Air
Attaché Deblin Costal of the US embassy in Caracas for being implicated in
“conspiracy plans”.

“They have 24 hours to pack their bags and leave,” Maduro said.

He explained that Monaco had, for the last few weeks, been contacting
members of the Venezuelan military in order to bring about a
destabilisation plan in Venezuela.

“This official has been given the task of looking for active military
members in Venezuela in order to propose destabilisation projects to the
Armed Forces.”

“We want to denounce that we have certain clues of elements that make up
this poisonous picture, which seek to disrupt the social life of our
country and give it a beating,” he added.

“The enemies of the country, who aim to destroy democracy, have decided to
go ahead with plans to destabilise Venezuela and damage the crux of a
democracy...they have intensified the attacks against the economy and
against goods and services,”  Maduro said, referring to the scarcity of
certain food and hygiene products that the country is currently
experiencing.

Maduro argued that the “national and international right wing” were taking
advantage of the “difficult circumstances” Venezuela is going through as a
result of the “delicate state of health of President Chavez”.

*Doubt over the cause of Chavez’s cancer*

Further, he said, “We don’t have any doubts that the historical enemies of
the country have searched for a way to damage the health of President
Chavez... that he was attacked with this illness,” alluding to the
possibility of a “scientific attack”.

“Just like what happened to Yasser Arafat... Eventually there will be a
scientific investigation into President Chavez’s illness,” he said.

There are different theories as to the cause of the former President of the
Palestinian National Authority, Yasser Arafat’s death in 2004. Last July Al
Jazeera reported that traces of polonium-210, a rare and highly radioactive
element, were found on Arafat’s belongings.

Other experts however claimed that polonium’s half life means it would be
impossible to discover it now if it had been used for poisoning eight years
ago, and that it must have been planted later. In 2005 the Palestinian
ambassador to Sri Lanka, Attalah Quiba also alleged that Arafat had been
poisoned by “high technology” such as a “high-tech laser”.

*Continue fighting and working*

Maduro concluded his public announcement by saying, “Men and women loyal to
Chavez, we’re going to continue with our duties, so that no single program
for the people is held back”.

“Venezuela’s political and military leadership is united, we call on the
people to close ranks, to unite forces, and to pray for our *comandante*,”
he said.

Referring to mainstream media lies and distortions about Chavez’s health
and the situation in Venezuela, Maduro also expressed his appreciation to
Venezuela for its “strength that there has been to face the psychological
and dirty war against our people”.

The vice-president called for “respect for Chavez, for his family in these
difficult times, respect for the pain and worry of our people”.
