Reuters: Maduro says Trump administration wants to have him killed
CARACAS (Reuters) - Socialist Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro accused the Trump administration on Thursday of seeking to assassinate him, as relations strain between the ideologically opposed nations.
Asked about Maduro’s comments, a spokesman for the White House’s National Security Council said: “U.S. policy preference for a peaceful, orderly return to democracy in Venezuela remains unchanged.”
Venezuela’s opposition says Maduro lobs ludicrous accusations at enemies to deflect from his own incompetence.

Since the Monroe Doctrine there has been a clear connection of interests between the United States and Latin America. Arguing the morality and benefits of this connection is of course a deeply controversial and perilous task, but it is clear that the image of the United States meddling in Latin American affairs is one that is well entrenched and likely difficult to shift.
Last time the U.S. intervened in Venezuela under the Monroe doctrine, it was to keep Britain and others from turning Venezuela into a colony.
Someone thinks they are freaking cute, when in reality, they are quite stupid.
