Venezuela's Chavez set for more Cuba cancer treatment
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has given a speech from the presidential palace in Caracas, the first since his latest round of treatment in Cuba for a malignant tumour.
Mr Chavez, who was more than two hours late, told thousands of supporters that he was "doing well".
But he also said he would return to Cuba on Saturday for more radiotherapy.
Mr Chavez said he did not know if he would be able to attend the Summit of the Americas in Colombia this weekend.
