Cuban 'doctors' on Chavez delegation to UN

Cubans "doctors" are among the 200 people Hugo Chavez wants to bring with him to New York when he addresses the United Nations General Assembly next week.

Chavez claims that the US is deliberately denying visas to his security and medical aides, but the US says it has not denied a single visa request for the UN visit. The Venezuelan government has made many last-minute requests and, complicating things further, some of the people on the Venezuelan delegation requesting visas are Cuban nationals.
