Chávez concludes
visit to Cuba; meets with Fidel and Raúl
HUGO
Chávez Frias, president of the Bolivarian Republic
of Venezuela, concluded a visit to Cuba on Tuesday
night by embracing President Raúl Castro at José
Martí International Airport.
During his non-official visit on November 24, Chávez
lunched and conversed with Fidel and, in the
afternoon, met with Raúl Castro, who had previously
received him on his arrival at Havana’s
international airport, for discussions on their
cooperation, and was bade farewell that same evening
by the president of the Councils of State and
Ministers.
As always, the Bolivarian president’s visit was much
appreciated by Cuba. The meetings took place in the
fraternal environment that characterizes relations
between the two peoples and their governments.
Important issues of an international nature were
covered, in particular the ALBA Summit scheduled to
take place in Havana this December, as well as the
progress of their wide-ranging and fruitful
bilateral links, which constitute an example of
collaboration in solidarity.
