President Hip?lito Mej?a was categorical in his denial of the presence of conspirators plotting the downfall of President Ch?vez of Venezuela. Responding to Ch?vez? own allegations of a subversive plot being hatched in the DR,
according to the article in today?s List?n Diario, Mej?a said, ?That is not true!? At the same time, he ?guaranteed? President Ch?vez that no attempt against his government or his life would originate here. President Mej?a attributed Ch?vez? remarks
to a ?syndrome? that the Venezuelan President has about the former president of that country, Carlos Andr?s P?rez, who resides in the Dominican Republic. ?I told him [Ch?vez] not to worry…? Mej?a told the press.
