VENEZUELA: Former Chavez Aides Call For Resignation.
MERCOPRESS/ Saying that 11 years is long enough, some former loyalists and close advisors to President Hugo Chavez called on him to resign because he had lost “the legitimacy and capacity to govern." Signers included former foreign minister Luis Alfonso Davila; former defense minister Raul Isaias Baduel; a drafter of the new Chavez-era constitution, Hermann Escarra; and two men who were at Chavez's side in a failed 1992 military coup bid, Yoel Acosta and Jesus Urdaneta.
