At a press conference today, Venezuela Ambassador to Haiti Roberto Canino spoke aggressively and briefly to the assembled attendees, affirming that the socialist republic stood "in solidarity with the people of Haiti."
Canino said in his prepared statement that his country's priorities were only that the international community invest where the Haitian government seeks to invest, and not provide any input as to where they best see fit to donate their generous financial assistance. He did not elaborate on what material assistance Venezuela will provide to the earthquake-ravaged nation.
Refusing to take questions, the ambassador left forthwith, claiming he had to go to the airport to pick up a "special guest," who will be in attendance at tomorrow's plenary.
