Peru accuses Chavez of meddling
2006-01-07
Hugo Chavez has denied meddling in Peru's forthcoming presidential election after the Peruvian ambassador was recalled from Venezuela. Peru's foreign ministry recalled Carlos Urrutia from Caracas on Thursday, saying Chavez's meeting this week with Ollanta Humala, the nationalist presidential candidate, "constitutes interference in the internal affairs of Peru". The Venezuelan government, however, denied that it was playing favourites in Peru's presidential vote on 9 April. The foreign ministry said in a statement: "We are profoundly respectful of other nations' sovereignty."

#2  Past threads here, Mexico claims our American Southwest that they lost in the war, "If those "Claims" were recognised Mexico would roughly double.

Yeah, sure.

#1  Of interest: if Ecuador's land claims in Peru were recognized, the country would increase in size by one and one half times. Chavez could stick his nose into that.

Bolivia and Peru claim much of northern Chile. Another opportunity for Castro-Chavez meddling.

What would President Monroe think of this?
