Exxon will Never Again Steal from Venezuela Says Chavez

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez classified the intention of the worlds largest oil company, ExxonMobil, to freeze assets of state-owned Venezuelan oil company Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA), as part of a US government backed 'economic war' and destabilization campaign against his government and the people of Venezuela. Chavez vowed that the Venezuelan government would not be intimidated. 'They will never rob us again, those bandits of ExxonMobil, they are imperialist bandits, white collar criminals, corruptors of governments, over-throwers of governments, who supported the invasion and bombing of Iraq and continue supporting the genocide in Iraq,'
