Venezuelan President Goes on 5-Country Tour

President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela began his tour of five countries last Sunday, with a stop in Cuba where he visited a fragile Fidel Castro, the former Cuban President. Pictures have been released of Chavez being greeted warmly by current Cuban President Raul Castro at the airport in Havana. After meeting up with Fidel that Sunday night, Chavez was off to Beijing. His tour also included stops in Moscow, another Russian city yet to be identified, Portugal, and France. During these meetings he planned to discuss various issues on Europe, the world, and their relationship.
