Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez said on his Sunday television and radio show, Alo Presidente, that his nation will sign a deal to buy Russian fighter planes when he visits Moscow in August or September. Chavez also said that he could sell Venezuela's F-16 fighter planes if the United States does not provide spare parts to his country.
"We will soon be in Moscow, because we will buy Russian fighter planes to defend our sky and land," said Chavez, adding these jets would be Russia's Sukhoi Su-30 planes, which are "100 times better than the F-16s that Venezuela bought from the United States."
