Argenis Chávez: President Chávez's return is in his doctors' hands

President of the National Electricity Corporation (Corpoelec) Argenis Chávez stressed Monday that "the decision on the return home of the head of state, Hugo Chávez, is in the hands of the medical team treating him."

Argenis Chávez, who is also the vice-minister for electric development, denied the information released on Monday by news agency The Associated Press (AP), according to which he would have claimed that his brother and Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez would return to the country in the next few days.

"Spokespersons are Executive Vice-President of the Republic Nicolás Maduro and Minister of Communication and Information Ernesto Villegas, who through the Bolivarian government's official media have provided details on the health of the President of the Republic, Hugo Chávez Frías," stressed Argenis Chávez, through a press release from Corpoelec.

Chávez is recovering in Havana, Cuba, after a surgery he underwent on December 11, 2012.
