Venezuela’s Vice President Nicolas Maduro talks in front of a screen with an image of Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez in the background during a rally to commemorate the 55th anniversary of the collapse of the last Venezuelan dictatorship in Caracas in this January 23, 2013 file photo. From would-be assassins to capitalist hoarders, Venezuela’s government is jumping on any perceived threats from old enemies in what opponents see as a tactic to shore up support during socialist President Hugo Chavez’s absence after cancer surgery. Once widely viewed as an easy-going, more moderate figure, Vice President Nicolas Maduro has been arguably as hardline and explosive as the boss in his running of government since Chavez disappeared to Cuba for surgery in December.
