President Hugo Chavez accused Colombia and the United States on Friday of plotting a military "aggression" against Venezuela.
Chavez, who made the accusation just as Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was visiting Colombia, did not offer evidence to support his claim.
Rice's visit is the latest, most high-profile one in a coordinated campaign by Colombia and the White House to win over skeptical Democrats and revive a free-trade pact that was signed in 2006 but has not been approved by Congress.
