Venezuela and Jamaica will not recognize the puppet regime in Haiti

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez announced yesterday that his government will not recognize Haiti's new government, which according to him is illegitimate because it is the product of a coup d'etat.

...Chavez congratulated Jamaican President James Percival Patterson for allowing Aristide into Jamaica in spite of US pressure.

He announced that his government would welcome President Aristide in Venezuela if he chooses to come to the country.

...The Caribbean Community regional summit will be held next week, and the fall of Aristide is among the main topics to discuss.
