Venezuelan, Colombian presidents will accept differences in planned talks: Chavez

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez says he won't let differences with Colombian President Alvaro Uribe impede talks the two leaders are planning. The pair has not met one-on-one since a deadly Colombian military strike destroyed a guerrilla camp in Ecuador in March, aggravating already tense relations between the Andean neighbors. Chavez said late Friday that while he's sure observers are betting the meeting won't happen, he and Uribe are committed to “accepting each other with whatever differences there may be.' Uribe has confirmed plans to meet with Chavez in July.
