Venezuela obtains K-8 military planes from China
Venezuela has received its first shipment of six Chinese-made K-8 military planes, and President Hugo Chavez says his government aims to buy 40 in all. Chavez announced plans last year to buy the trainer and light attack jets.
Chavez reiterated Saturday that he turned to China and Russia for weapons because the United States has barred arms sales to Venezuela. Several planes flew overhead during the ceremony at an air base in the city of Barquisimeto. (AP)
