Venezuela's Chavez to visit China: govt

by Staff Writers
Beijing (AFP) April 5, 2009
Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez is due to arrive in China on Tuesday for a two-day visit, the Asian nation's foreign ministry said Sunday, following a trip to Iran and Japan.

"At the invitation of President Hu Jintao, Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez will pay a working visit to China from April 7 to 9," foreign ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said in an online statement.

Venezuela and China have close relations in a variety of fields from energy to finance and industry.

Last year, Venezuela launched its first geostationary satellite thanks to cooperation with China.

Caracas recently purchased a fleet of 18 K-8 reconnaissance and training aircraft from Beijing with delivery expected in January 2010.

Chavez last visited China in September 2008.

The reverberations of January's natural gas dispute between Russia and Ukraine continue to resound throughout European energy markets. Europe, alarmed by the vulnerability of its supplies, is sounding out new possibilities for transmission of natural gas, including the proposed Nabucco pipeline. Russia, in its turn, is seeking bypass routes around its increasingly nationalist southern neighbor.
