Doha, June 14 (RHC)-- Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has arrived in Qatar, the fifth destination of his international work tour through countries in Africa, Asia and Europe.
Besides being accompanied by his wife Cilia Flores, the Bolivarian leader traveled with the ministers of transportation, science and technology, agriculture, land, and other officials of the Venezuelan Presidency.
Maduro was received by the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Sultan BinSaad Al-Muraikhi, the Qatari ambassador in Caracas and the Venezuelan Chargé d'Affaires Fatima Majzou.
During his visit to this Arab country, the Bolivarian leader will hold meetings to strengthen cooperation in the areas of science, technology, agriculture, transportation, energy, tourism, and culture.
