Organization of American States Head Moves Against

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — May 31, 2016, 10:47 AM ET

The head of the Organization Of American States on Tuesday called for an emergency meeting of regional governments to evaluate Venezuela's respect for democracy, a move that could lead to the country's suspension from the hemispheric body.

Luis Almagro said Venezuela had suffered an alteration of constitutional order called for a vote on the matter in the coming weeks.

The socialist country could be suspended from the organization if two-thirds of the organization's 34 member states to vote that the country's leadership has gravely undermined democracy there.

Almagro has been feuding with Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro.

Maduro accused him of working with the opposition and the U.S. to undermine Venezuela. Almagro responded by calling him a petty dictator.

But to be honest, I can't tell if this is serious or sarcastic, since Maduro apologists in this site would easily go that far.
