Hugo Chavez drinks vodka, drives trucks at Belarus's trade fair in Caracas

Alexander Lukashenka is continuing his official visit to Venezuela. Together with his host, Hugo Chavez, the Belarusian president visited the Belarusian trade exhibition in Caracas. Chavez spent three hours to familiarize himself with the products of 216 enterprises from Belarus. He tasted the Belarusian vodka and drove a BelA truck for several dozen meters.

Afterwards, the Venezuelan president climbed to a tractor's cabin. There are no reports about Lukashenka's behavior at this moment.

Interfax notes that Belarus and Venezuela will today sign an agreement to establish a joint venture to assemble Belarus's tractors in this South American nation.
