"The United States is not the boss here anymore," boasted
Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez on Tuesday on arriving
in Brazil and hailed the rendezvous of the Latin American
summit without "the aegis" or the look of the United States
and with Cuba's appearance.
"The important thing for independence in this hemisphere
is for us to meet without the Empire (…) A new history, a
new stage, is beginning," said the head of state on arriving
in Costa do Sauipe, northeastern Brazil.
"We are taking a way that was missed long time ago, the time
of (Simón) Bolívar, of (José) Martí, of
our founding fathers. Here we are, talking, from the South,"
he added.
Presidents and representatives of 33 Latin American and Caribbean
countries would meet until Wednesday in this Brazilian heavenly
spa located in Bahía state, for a summit focused on hemispheric
integration.
