CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Nicolas Maduro expelled the top U.S.
diplomat in Venezuela and his deputy Tuesday for allegedly conspiring
against the socialist government and trying to sabotage the weekend
presidential election.
"The empire doesn't dominate us
here," Maduro said in a televised address, giving charge d'affaires Todd
Robinson and his deputy, Brian Naranjo, 48 hours to leave the country.
"We've had enough of your conspiring."
Tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela have mounted following
Maduro's victory in presidential election Sunday, a vote that the White
House and others have branded a "sham."
