Venezuelan president rejects U.S. appointed ambassador to Caracas
2010-09-18
(Xinhua) -- Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez rejected on Friday, Larry Palmer, ambassador appointed by the United States.

"That man was disqualified. If they (U.S.) decide not to send an ambassador, do not send him and if they want to withdraw our ambassador, do it. We are an independent nation and they are acting with imperial rudeness," said Chavez, during an official event of the ruling Socialist United Party of Venezuela (PSUV).

Chavez added that the administration of U.S. president Barack Obama was irresponsible and killer.

"Let him send who ever he wants, or the one the empire wants," Chavez said.

"That man is disqualified, better him not ever try to come because he will not be allowed to enter Venezuelan territory. Let' s make this clear once for all," Chavez added.

On Aug. 3, Palmer made comment on the "low moral of the Venezuelan Armed Forces," so the Venezuelan government expressed his rejection and in three occasions informed that it would reject Palmer as ambassador to the country.
