Venezuelan President To Break Off Relations With US

Venezuela: thousands of demonstrators backed their president Hugo Chavez, who accused US and Colombian officials of provoking a diplomatic crisis between the Caribbean countries.

Chavez claimed, "I know where this provocation comes from: from Washington, not from Bogota!"

Chavez said Sunday that the United States was behind the arrest of a commander of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), Rodrigo Granada, on Venezuelan territory on December 13, launching a diplomatic crisis.

Last week Chavez threatened to freeze business between the two countries, which have a free-trade agreement. On Sunday, he threatened to freeze bilateral projects.
