CARACAS, Venezuela — President Hugo Chavez ordered Venezuela’s military on Sunday to prepare for a possible armed conflict with Colombia, saying the country’s soldiers should be ready if the United States attempts to provoke a war between the South American neighbors.
Chavez told supporters during his weekly broadcast that President Barack Obama holds sway over Colombia’s government. He cautioned the U.S. leader against using his allies in Bogota to mount a military offensive against Venezuela.
