Chavez Needs to go further surgery

22.02.2012

Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez has said Cuban doctors have found another lesion in his pelvis, from where he had a large tumor removed last year. Now, Reuters reports on Tuesday, he will have to undergo another operation. The 57-year-old leader of the socialist state traveled to Havana for medical tests on Saturday. His sudden departure prompted speculation both among the opposition and supporters that Chavez was at death's door.
