For example:

8 July - A Venezuelan military vessel carrying 14,000 barrels of diesel as a
gift to Haiti has docked in Port-au-Prince. The Venezuelan government
delegation on board was welcomed by Finance Minister, Faubert Gustave, and Venezuela'a
ambassador to Haiti, Marco Requena Rotundo. The diesel fuel has a value of
more than US$500,000. The gift from the Hugo Chavez government has been made to
mark the celebration of Haiti's two hundred years of independence on 1 January
2004, and to extend cooperation between countries of the South. (HPN)
