Maybe there is a God of Venezuela - Noriega: Chávez cancer progressing faster than expected -

Noriega: Chávez cancer progressing faster than expected - Venezuela - MiamiHerald.com

BY ANTONIO MARIA DELGADO 11-9-11

A former official in the Bush administration said in a column that President Hugo Chávez is in worse health than he has let on.

President Hugo Chávez’s cancer is spreading faster than expected and his doctors fear that he may have only a few months left to live, a former U.S. government official said Wednesday, citing sources inside the Venezuelan government.

“The international team of doctors in charge of treating Hugo Chávez’s cancer does not expect him to live more than six months,” said Roger Noriega, former U.S. ambassador to the Organization of American States.

Noriega’s opinion came in a column titled “Hugo Chávez’s Big Lie and Washington’s Apathy,” published on the Internet portal of Inter-American Security Watch.

“Sources who have given me privileged information and documents from inside the Venezuelan government indicate that Chávez’s cancer is spreading faster than expected and could kill him before the presidential elections in October 2012,” added Noriega, who was also undersecretary of State for Hemispheric Affairs in the Bush administration.
