Chavez is Welcomed by Thousands in Venezuela

Thousands of supporters of the Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez gathered this Saturday in front of the government palace to welcome him after almost three weeks from his surgery in La Habana, Cuba.

Chavez blew kisses, sang and raised his fist from a high balcony of the Miraflores Palace of Caracas. The Venezuelan leader saluted the supporters that came to hear the plans of his third electoral campaign for the reelection.

Chavez arrived last Friday during the night from Cuba after removing a cancerous tumor. “I am back filled with will, faith in God, and much love, which is the strongest force and the commitment that I have with you to live and continue to build a new and pretty country.” told Chavez to his supporters.
