VENEZUELA’S socialist president Hugo Chavez has died after a two-year battle
with cancer, it was revealed last night. The flamboyant leader, 58, had four operations in Cuba, home of his communist
pal Fidel Castro.
He flew home last month and had not been seen in public since. Nicolas Maduro, the South American country’s vice president, announced the
death, saying: “It’s a moment of deep pain.” Dictator Chavez, who ruled for 14 years, outraged Brits by claiming the
Falklands should be returned to Argentina. He hated the US and ordered American diplomats out after accusing them of
trying to destabilise the country.
