Hugo Chavez and Gov. Bill Richardson Meet : And All You Did Was Visit Abuela This Weekend

06:53 H | Topics: Colombia - Politics - Venezuela

r.jpegOn Saturday, the Latino U.S. President that wasn't, New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, met with U.S. Latin American enemy #2 (Cuba is still #1), Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Richardson was lending his support in hostage negotiations with the FARC, especially trying to secure the release of 3 U.S. hostages and of course, Ingrid Betancourt.

"I've had a good meeting with President Chavez ... (he) has told me that he is willing to help in this situation," Gov. Bill Richardson told reporters after the meeting.
"Many times in a conflict like this we forget the human side, that human beings are being held hostage."
