Right Wing Venezuelan Plotted Coup in Florida in 2013

A new YouTube video was released this month showing Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez detailing destabilization plans against President Nicolas Maduro in a meeting with a right-wing exile group in Florida. The meeting between Lopez, leader and founder of the right-wing Popular Will party, and members of the group Politically Persecuted Venezuelans in Exile (VEPPEX), took place October 31, 2013, just three months before opposition members began violent protests in Caracas. here

Lopez is currently facing a trial in Venezuela for inciting violence during the riots in Caracas that left dozens of people dead.
