Venezuelan socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro once again personally accused Colombian President Iván Duque on Tuesday of plotting his assassination, this time allegedly during the fraudulent legislative elections Maduro organized Sunday.
The Spanish news agency EFE noted Maduro has claimed to be the target of an assassination plot over 40 times since he succeeded late socialist dictator Hugo Chávez in 2013. While Maduro has blamed most of those alleged plots on the United States, he has increasingly accused Colombia of being a willing accomplice. Maduro has presented no verifiable evidence for any of his alleged assassination plots.
The democratically elected government of Colombia has vehemently denied any alleged plot to kill Maduro.
“My security team recommended that I change polling stations … Iván Duque participated in the plan to try to assassinate me on Election Day; that is the truth,” Maduro said on state television on Tuesday. “Iván Duque is the Colombian president who has hated Venezuela the most, I don’t know who he hates more — Venezuela or Colombia, I think us.”
Maduro presented no evidence for this allegation.
Maduro went on to accuse Duque of wanting “a war with Venezuela” but failing to accomplish his alleged mission.
“Every day in his office he gets a report of what I say and what I do; every day he talks about me and Venezuela,” Maduro alleged. “He has a fatal attraction like in the movie. Of course, in the movie they fall in love, I don’t think that he is in love with me. I think he is in hate, not love. He governs more against Venezuela than for Colombia.”
Elsewhere in his remarks on Tuesday, Maduro claimed Duque had prepared an army of 1,000 “mercenaries” to fight Venezuela.
Maduro also used Twitter to accuse Duque of trying to kill him...

Touche, Breitbart.
Like we might miss him?
Trying? Need to do a little better than trying.
If I could get the shot, I’d take it.
How about a Go Fund Me page for ammo?
How about a Go Fund Me page for ammo?
Who said that? Mmmm.
damn shame they did not succeed.
Too bad he didn’t.
Send more ammo to the Colombian President.
He’s a commie. Kinda like putting down a rabid dog.
I don't think killing you would start a war, Maduro. A party maybe. :)
At this point Columbia would have to cater it.
