Venezuela's president pays visit to Fidel Castro
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HAVANA -- Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro made a belated birthday
visit to Fidel Castro, the former Cuban leader revealed in one of his
regular columns.
Castro's "Reflections" column posted Wednesday night on the official
website CubaDebate said Venezuela's socialist leader dropped by Tuesday,
fulfilling a promise to make a visit that Maduro made Aug. 13 as Castro
turned 88.
Castro revealed that Maduro had sent him fruit and tracksuit for his
birthday.
Cuba's former president did not comment on Maduro's official agenda for
his Cuban stop, which was not announced in advance. He didn't say
whether the Venezuelan met with Cuban President Raul Castro or other
officials.
Castro retired from government in 2006 after a serious illness and now
uses his "Reflections" column to comment on national or international
matters.
