Caracas (AFP) - Venezuela's Foreign Minister Delcy Rodriguez on Saturday condemned what she called "bold threats" from her Paraguayan counterpart after he announced a "total freezing of relations." Paraguayan Foreign Minister Eladio Loizaga announced on Friday that he would not return to Caracas indefinitely over what he called "rants" by Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. "Venezuela will not allow itself to be threatened or succumb to the fear from those who choose to serve the empire rather than the people," Rodriguez tweeted in response. "(Loizaga's) bold threats... insult our heritage of independence and freedom." Earlier this month, Maduro said Venezuela was being "persecuted" by "a corrupt Paraguayan oligarch and drug trafficker," referring to Paraguayan President Horacio Cartes. Venezuela — in political and economic crisis, facing severe shortages of basic goods — has come under fire from its Latin American neighbors for allegedly failing to comply with the region's Democratic Charter, a binding document. Earlier this week, Brazil accused Maduro of imposing an "authoritarian" regime on his country. www.yahoo.com/news/venezuela-condemns-bold-threats-paraguay-170031711.html

He's being isolated but frankly he couldn't care less, every person in the country could pack up and leave and he'd still appear on TV and talk to himself. September the 1st could be very very bad, he won't hesitate to put down any dissent and will probably enjoy shooting into crowds.
