Hugo Chavez has sent a warning along with troops and tanks to its Colombian border. The Colombia government had killed Raul Reyes and 18 other rebels in Ecuador. Chavez is saying that this is unacceptable and he will not allow this to continue. Venezuala has been trying to mediate the situation between Columbia and the Colombian rebels. The Venezualan embassy in Colombia has been closed which creates an even higher level of tension. It seems to only be a matter of time before the two nations begin a war. This could cause many other problems than just international conflict; there would be economic losses and talks between the rebels and the Colombian government could completely break down.
