CARACAS, Venezuela -- President Hugo Chavez has appointed the commander of Venezuela's navy as his new defense minister, replacing a close confidant who he has tapped as a candidate in upcoming regional elections.

Speaking during a telephone call broadcast Monday on state television, Chavez appointed Navy Cmdr. Diego Molero as defense minister.

Molero, an admiral who has served as the navy's intelligence chief, replaces Army Gen. Henry Rangel Silva.
