'Venezuela's government decided to expel all Colombian diplomats'

The Venezuela's government decided to expel all the Colombian diplomats in the country.

The announcement was made Monday by the Venezuelan Foreign Affairs Minister, Nicolás Maduro, during his participation in an extraordinary session held at the National Assembly.

The decision is based on the 'computer' operation launched against Venezuela, Minister Maduro said.

Minister Maduro said that the Colombian conflict is a threat not only for that country but for all the region.

Furthermore, he made an appeal to the international community to guarantee an humanitarian swap in Colombia.

Maduro stressed the global repudiation to the attack against the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Farc) in Ecuador's territory, except for the United States, which gave its support to Colombia.

'The world has rejected the cowardly aggression carried out by the Colombian government against the peaceful people of Ecuador,' he said.

The Foreign Affairs Minister added: 'Venezuela supports Ecuador. We will fight for the sovereignty of our brother countries in Latin America and the Caribbean.'

Maduro ratified President Chávez' stance, which is to continue promoting the peace.

Likewise, he rejected the plan carried out to destabilize the South American region.

He warned about the alleged versions that point out the attack against the Farc' camp in Ecuador started in the US military base of Manta, located in Ecuador.

According to Maduro, the version has been analyzed by the government of Ecuador due to the proximity of Manta with the place where 17 members of the Farc were murdered last Saturday.
