Venezuela expels US ambassador

Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan president, has ordered the US ambassador to leave the country amid a series of tit-for-tat diplomatic expulsions between Bolivia and the US.

The US had ordered the expulsion of the Bolivian ambassador earlier on Thursday after Washington's envoy to Bolivia was expelled by Evo Morales, the president.

Chavez, who gave Patrick Duddy 72 hours to leave, added that he was also recalling his ambassador from Washington.

"That's enough ... from you, Yankees," Chavez said on Thursday, using an expletive.

Hrm. Why do the winds here smell eery? Maybe trying to stir up another
"This place" "This place" Conflict? Or is Chavez full of it?

Following the expulsion of US envoys in Venezuela and Bolivia, Honduran President Manuel Zelaya on Friday postponed the reception of credentials of the new US ambassador in a show of solidarity with Bolivia.

TEGUCIGALPA - Honduras, a former U.S. ally in Central
America now run by a leftist government, told a U.S.
envoy not to present his credentials as ambassador on
Friday in a diplomatic snub in support of Bolivia.

President Manuel Zelaya said, however, that he did not want
to upset his country's relations with Washington.

Bolivia and anti-U.S. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez are
in a fight with Washington over what they see as U.S. support
for violent protests against Bolivian President Evo Morales

Your foreign policy seems to be piling it's errors up Mr. Busch. Unless your Busch doctrine gets to um.
