Deposed president Manuel Zelaya arrived in Caracas, Venezuela yesterday for a series of meetings with President Hugo Chávez. The trip had originally been scheduled for February 25, but Mr. Zelaya, who has been living in the Dominican Republic as a "Distinguished Guest" since January 27, had to revise his plans due to last minute scheduling changes by Venezuelan authorities. The original travel plans called a visit with President Chávez and then a tour of Central America for meetings with President Daniel Ortega of Nicaragua, President Mauricio Funes of El Salvador, and President Álvaro Colom of Guatemala, and finally ending with visits to the United States and Spain. Mr. Zelaya has reportedly scheduled a press conference for 10:30 this morning Friday. (3/5/10) (photo of Hugo Chávez and Manuel Zelaya courtesy Internet)
