The State Department booted Venezuela's consul general over an alleged plot among Venezuela Iran and Cuba diplomats to start a cyberattack against Washington.
The department said it gave Livia Acosta Noguera, Venezuela's consul general in Miami, until Tuesday to leave the United States after declaring her "persona non grata," the most serious form of censure a country can apply to a foreign diplomat, who is otherwise protected by diplomatic immunity from arrest and other normal kinds of prosecution.
