President Hugo Chavez urged the Venezuelan
people on Wednesday to show their solidarity with Cuba and Haiti, “two
nations – he said - that have been severely affected by two powerful
hurricanes.”
“I urge all Venezuelans to further cooperation with Cuba and Haiti
because these hurricanes have hit them far beyond our imagination,”
Chavez said.
According to Juventud Rebelde news daily, the Venezuelan leader noted
that there was no electricity supply all across Cuba and that only a
group of small power generators guaranteed basic services in hospitals,
bakeries, radio stations, etc.
He added that more than 2.5 million people were evacuated in Cuba before
Hurricane Ike hit the country causing severe damages to houses, crops,
roads and the nationwide system of electricity supply. “The damage is
incalculable,” he stressed.
The Venezuelan leader made the call during the inauguration of new
facilities of the Barrio Adentro social program, which promotes free
medical care in Venezuela with the assistance of Cuban professionals.
