President Chavez of Venezuela gives President Ahmadinejad a warm welcome at Miraflores Palace in Caracas.

"We are here to welcome you, brother Ahmadinejad. Leader. Brother. Comrade," Chavez said.

Ahmadinejad, in return, called Chavez "my valiant brother."

"A brother," he said, "who is resisting like a mountain the intentions of imperialism and colonialism."

Under the administration of President Ahmadinejad, the Islamic Republic of Iran has successfully worked at developing growing cooperation with Latin American nations, especially those considered leftist or populist. The results are evident during this latest trip by the Iranian president to South America.
