| [Meanwhile Chavez is picking fights with foreign oil companies — including Shell, ExxonMobil, Repsol YPF, Chevron, BP, and Total that have been working in Venezuela for years. Thirty-two publicly traded oil companies are accused of owing Venezuela $4 billion in back taxes for overproduction — something they deny. This follows Venezuela's hikes in production royalties from 1% to 16.7% in October, hikes in taxes on operating agreements from 32% to 50% in April, and a declared end to contracted dollar payments to foreign oil field operators in May.] The desire to operate in Venezuela, ... is fading fast. |
| If Chavez would only act according to what he says, then we'd have an environmentalist Venezuela. |
| Please - let's not talk about Chavez any more! He is in every conversation in Venezuela, and I am sick of it! |
| We accept the offer in the spirit in which it's been offered, but I don't really see it as any kind of dramatic change. I think it's in part a public relations effort on his part. But we have to take in the context as part of a cycle where some positive things are said, and then some negative, unhelpful things are said. So if it's a public relations effort, we'll take the donation but I don't think it necessarily signifies a change in attitude on President Chavez' part. |

For many months now, the Venezuelan president has claimed that the White House has targeted him for assassination. In March, the State Department retorted that Chávez’s spate of accusations regarding a CIA plot to assassinate him were “wild.” However, serious doubts emerged over the weight of the administration’s latest display of supposed indifference to Chávez’s fate when Felix Rodriguez, a former CIA operative in Central America and influential Bush-backer in South Florida, claimed in a Miami TV interview that regarding Venezuela, the administration has] contingency plans. ... could be economic measures and even at some point military measures. |

| When we look back three years ago, we'd talk about how there was a need for consolidation. It's mind boggling that there hasn't been any consolidation... We've been talking to a lot of people for the past three years, but the tone has changed. |
| We owe it to our own citizens to ensure that we have contingency plans, should such a reduction or interruption come to pass, ... But let me say that this would be an illogical act on the part of the government of Venezuela. Venezuela and the U.S. are natural partners in oil, for simple, common sense geographic reasons. |
