ResumoespanolEn los primeros anos de su presidencia, Hugo Chavez mantuvo algunas de las lineas basicas de la politica exterior de los gobiernos anteriores, basada en la busqueda de un mayor equilibrio internacional y el impulso a la integracion regional. Sin embargo, su consolidacion politica luego del triunfo en el referendum revocatorio y el aumento del precio del petroleo le han permitido desplegar una nueva y ambiciosa estrategia internacional: el retiro de Venezuela de procesos de integracion como la CAN, el ingreso al Mercosur, el impulso a proyectos como Telesur, el Banco del Sur y hasta una OTAN Sudamericana, la retorica antiestadounidense, la compra de armamento y los contactos con China y Rusia son algunos de sus elementos mas importantes. EnglishAfter the years of crisis that followed the collapse of the Soviet Union, Cuba is now enjoying a certain boom, encouraged by Venezuela?s policy of oil subsidies and initiatives such as ALBA which have helped to reduce its international isolation. As a result, some policies designed to improve the living conditions of those hardest hit by the crisis have been introduced and there has been a change in the technocratic elite that led the economic opening of the nineties. Nevertheless, beyond the immediate benefits, the subsidies mean relegating dynamic economic activities, contribute to slowing down the political renovation and end up postponing reforms that are crucial for the future of the island.
