Chavez opens fuel facility in Dominica
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez attended a ceremony marking the opening of a fuel storage facility on the Caribbean island of Dominica Friday, as part of Venezuela's continuing program to provide fuel to Caribbean countries.
'We are one nation, the Caribbean nation,' Chavez said at the event, according to an Associated Press report.
Venezuela is providing fuel to some poor Caribbean countries under terms allowing for deferred payments and long-term financing for fuel shipments. Chavez and Dominica leaders signed an agreement calling for cooperation in the areas of tourism and education, the report said.
