Caracas, Feb. 28 : Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has said 82-year-old former Cuban leader Fidel Castro seemed to be in a "very, very good shape" during their latest meeting in Cuba.
"Fidel is - well - very, very, very good. Very good. He was much better than all the times I''ve visited him in the past three years, two and a half years," the Telegraph quoted him, as saying.
Havana - In an unscheduled trip to Cuba, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez met twice with ailing revolutionary leader Fidel Castro, Cuban television reported Saturday.
The visit was described as a working visit by Chavez, who was met Friday at the airport by Fidel's brother, President Raul Castro, and other members of the Cuban leadership.
The visit had not been officially announced beforehand.
Caracas - The newspaper column that Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has been writing three times a week will now appear just once a week, the government said Tuesday.
On Sunday, a Chavez-sponsored proposal to remove term limits on the mandates of the president and other elected officials was passed in a referendum.
Sao Paulo - Colombian President Alvaro Uribe on Monday congratulated his Venezuelan counterpart Hugo Chavez on his referendum victory that removed term limits on his re-election.
"First, congratulations to President Chavez, because he obtained a democratic victory. Second, congratulations to our Venezuelan brothers for practicing democracy. And third, we will hope that antagonisms are overcome in Venezuela," Uribe said.
Caracas - Venezuela's opposition leaders on Monday warned President Hugo Chavez that the referendum victory that removed term limits on his re-election "was no landslide," and he would need to seek greater consensus to remain in power.
Opposition leaders noted that 6 million Venezuelans, or 54 per cent of voters, favoured a proposal that allows the president unlimited re-election bids, while 5 million (46 per cent) voted against it and 32 per cent of those registered to cast their ballot, abstained.
