CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - Security forces closed off access to a plaza where anti-government demonstrators were set to rally behind fugitive opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez in a tense standoff with pro-government forces who have organized their own march.
The competing demonstrations loomed one day after President Nicolas Maduro's government gave three U.S. Embassy officials 48 hours to leave the country, claiming they were supporting what he says are opposition plots to topple his socialist administration. The U.S. denied that.
My Way News - Fears of more protest clashes high in Venezuela
Let's hope the protest is peaceful.....With Maduro calling for competing protests, probably not....Well, we all know that leftists can't take criticism, and it is a shame that people will die over it....
