Venezuela's Maduro signs decree granting security powers in case of military intervention

CARACAS (Reuters) -Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has signed a decree granting him additional security powers in case of a military incursion into the country, the nation's vice president, Delcy Rodriguez, said on Monday. The decree would allow Maduro to mobilize armed forces throughout the country and give the military authority over public services and the oil industry. Maduro last week said he would submit the decree for consideration.
