AFP. 13 April 2002. Vice president will lead Venezuela; assembly head. CARACAS -- The president of Venezuela's newly-restored National Assembly, William Lara, said vice president Diosdado Cabello will become interim president until ousted leader Hugo Chavez can officially resign before the legislature.
Earlier, the current interim leader, business executive Pedro Carmona, reinstated the legislature after Venezuela's army commander said that was a condition of the army's support for his regime. It was not immediately clear what Lara's announcement would mean for Carmona, who left the Miraflores presidential palace for a refuge in the Fort Tiuna military base after the palace was surrounded by thousands of Chavez supporters. ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
