Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said he is preparing to break off diplomatic relations with Colombia over the neighboring country's plan to allow U.S. troops access to its military bases.

 

"The agreement of the seven bases is a declaration of war against the Bolivarian Revolution," Chavez said.

 

Relations between the two countries have been tense since Colombia entered into negotiations with the United States to allow its troops to operate from seven bases.
