 Minsk (AFP) Jul 25, 2006
Venezuela and Belarus have created a "strategic alliance" that will include military cooperation, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said during a visit to a military academy in Minsk.

"We have set up a real strategic alliance between Venezuela and Belarus... Cooperation between our two countries will operate through different mechanisms including military-technical ones," Chavez said.

"We have to defend our homelands and oppose ourselves to external threat," said Chavez, who was winding up his three-day visit to a country dubbed the "last dictatorship in Europe" by Washington.

Venezuela's firebrand leader also called on the Belarussian government to "oppose a false democracy that is a actually a dictatorship of the elites and the transnational oligarchs."

At a meeting between with his Belarussian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko on Monday, Chavez called for the creation of a "fighting union" and the two signed an agreement on "strategic partnership."
