In the face of President Chávez's outspoken resistance to the neoliberal projext in Latin America, his advocacy of a Bolivarian alternative to Washington's Free Trade Area of the Americas, the accelerating social reforms in Venezuela, and rising hysteria in Washington about the relationship between Hugo Chávez and Fidel Castro, this is fascinating and wide-ranging analysis by Cuba's ambassador to Venezuela."
