Mr Chavez is due to be sworn in for another term of office on Jan 10. But it looks unlikely that he'll be well enough to attend.

Opposition politicians have said they would welcome the return to the ballot box, but government ministers are insisting that Mr Chavez's inauguration can be postponed to a later date. They say that President Chavez is on the road to recovery.
