By Toby Muse and Julian Borger CARACAS/WASHINGTON, FEB. 23. Venezuela's President, Hugo Chavez, on Tuesday accused his U.S. counterpart, George W. Bush, of plotting to assassinate him, and warned that all Venezuelan oil exports to the U.S. would stop in the event of his death. ``If I am assassinated, there is only one person responsible: the President of the United States,'' Mr. Chavez said during his weekly radio and television show "Hello President." He offered no proof of any conspiracy but said the Cuban President, Fidel Castro, had warned of a possible plot against him last week. ``If, by the hand of the devil, these perverse plans succeed ... forget about Venezuelan oil, Mr. Bush,'' Mr. Chavez said. ``I will not hide, I will walk in the streets with all of you ... but I know I am condemned to death,'' Mr. Chavez told his listeners. © Guardian Newspapers Limited 2004
