Everyone knows of the friction, cooling in Venezuela's diplomatic relations with respect to Colombia, known by the facts of the derivations of the famous missing laptops Raul Reyes of the FARC, where he accuses Venezuela of is closely linked to this group.

Many times the president, Lt. Col. Hugo Chavez has expressed very strong epithets about the President? Alvaro Uribe, calling him traitor, coward, confrontational, lackey of imperialism, among others.

The fact that both reaching the Summit Meeting held in Brasilia, negative temíanresultados between these two countries, what has been said, it can damage the harmony that wants to be re operativaeficientementeUNASUR. However, it seems that President Hugo Chavez sought to change their strategies and opening it again with his counterpart President? Alvaro Uribe. As vtv.gob.ve says, the president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, shook hands with the president of Colombia? Alvaro Uribe, and expressed his desire to regain lost confidence, at the end of the Meeting Extraordinary stopped officially formed the Union of South America (UNASUR).

"The relationship with Colombia has deteriorated so much ...?, Chavez warned a group of journalists in covering the summit of UNASUR. But he said that this summit served for many things, including meeting with his Colombian counterpart, which shows the willingness of Venezuela to try again become a unifying element.

"We shook hands and told him: here is my hand and the heart. Am I on behalf of the Venezuelan people, ready to resume the way we had been carrying with differences, but with respect?, Reiterating the desire to rebuild trust and resume the path of cooperation, Chavez said.

The president reported that Uribe "talked for a while, we confirmed our desire for peace, to respect differences. It was a conversation of several minutes, very relaxed, relaxed?

The head of state stressed that the Bolivarian Venezuela and Colombia have always had a close relationship and cooperation.

Very positive his statement when he said he did hope that the relationship return to the path "in recent years as we ever did. I think the meeting was favorable, even could say that I personally was nice meeting between the two groups and walks with me and the group walks with Uribe?.

As always, President Chavez, I take this opportunity to attack what it considers the enemy of America, United States, especially President Busch and publicly declared the U.S. is the only one who wants the war in Colombia:

He hoped that the UNASUR achieve the government of Colombia return to the spirit of the Rio Group, who lived at the last meeting in the Dominican Republic.

He made it clear that Venezuela does not interfere in internal affairs of any country, least of Colombia, and recalled that when he came to power in 1999, ended the common practice by which Venezuelan governments to irregular forces fighting in Colombian territory.

"In February 1999, said that Venezuela would not interfere in the affairs of more neighbors. Before Venezuela fought the guerrillas in Colombia, and said, do not want that, we follow the path of peace, only the U.S. has a vested interest in maintaining its war in Colombia?.

He took the opportunity to reiterate his claim that the show of the computers and the INTERPOL report is just one of the intentions of the empire, which adds to the military attack on Ecuador, which was planned and implemented with funding from the U.S., as Colombia no technological capacity to do this.

"It's a hoax more, with the interest to cause problems between neighboring countries and stop the process of UNASUR?.

Must be stressed to acknowledge the government of Colombia for having come to Brasilia and signed the treaty of UNASUR, even with the differences that have arisen. But he warned that the situation in Latin America has changed greatly, with a historical focal change will continue, because it is just beginning.

"For 10 years the situation has changed. I think today has ratified a will march together, respecting differences?. He felt that no one can expect that all governments are in the same political and ideological framework. "In the left governments that say today ... all paint a map of South America, there are different approaches, different levels, different speeds and rhythms. Beyond that, there is the unitary will?.

"I sought an operational integration. Let's make a plan and accomplish operational work?, Said one of the conclusions of the signing of the Constitution of the UNASUR. He said that there is a need to deepen and form a strong bloc, a kind of strong, fast engine that drives all this to the joint operations?.

We hope that this meeting actually give more harmonious relationships, favorable to both countries in which both President handles its diplomacy with height, ensure peace, harmony, results that will encourage and work with true Latin American integration.
