Mystery over driver backs up claims of Draskovic death plot
Article Abstract:
The Serbian Renewal Movement, headed by Vuk Draskovic, may join the Alliance for Change protests against President Slobodan Milosevic following the death of three of Draskovic's bodyguards in a car crash. Draskovic believes that the crash, which was caused by a truck swerving into his convoy of three cars, was an attempt to assassinate him. His brother-in-law, Veselin Boskovic, was also killed. A Serbian Renewal Movement lawyer has stated that this does not appear to have been an ordinary crash.

Venezuela falls for 'New Age Peron.'
Article Abstract:
Venezuelan president, Hugo Chavez, sees himself as tackling corruption, and he foresees an expanded Venezuela. Critics argue that he is taking Venezuela back to the past, yet he is very popular in Venezuela where the Patriotic Pole, his party, holds 120 sats of a total of 131 in the constitutional assembly. He has links with Cuba's Fidel Castro, Libya's Muammar Gaddafi, and Iraq's Saddam Hussein, and has been imprisoned for two years following a failed coup in 1992.
