Caracas, February 21 (RHC) –- Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has warned that the U.S. television network CNN report the protests in the country accurately or face expulsion.

Maduro accused CNN Español of becoming the voice of the the opposition, saying Caracas does not accept war propaganda against Venezuela and will remove CNN from the air in the country if the channel does not change the way it has covered the protests.

In a live television appearance on Thursday, Maduro said he asked the Minister of Communications and Information Delcy Rodríguez to notify CNN that the administrative process of removing their bureau from Venezuela had begun.

A CNN spokesperson told Reuters the network did not have any immediate comments about Maduro's remarks.

Violence erupted throughout Venezuela last week after opposition rioters took to the streets of several cities to protest against the government. According to reports, at least six people have died in the unrest, organized by opposition sectors to sabotage the advance of the Bolivarian revolution in Venezuela.
