Venezuela’s Chavez arrives Friday to Buenos Aires and will then fly to visit his “brother” Evo Morales in Bolivia

President Bush’s visit to Uruguay is seen as a sign of support for the government of President Tabaré Vázquez and his plan to reach a free trade agreement with the US.
The Uruguayan ruling coalition is deeply divided on the issue, but it was accepted that President Vazquez, as he was hosted last May in the White House, must now do the same with the US president.

This however does not impede the organization by the local trade unions movement that supports Vazquez and the Socialist oriented coalition, of protesting the US leader presence in Uruguay.

Meantime in Buenos Aires, dozens of activist groups are planning a protest at a football stadium which can hold up to 40,000 people.
