Study Center of Che to Be Opened in Venezuela

Havana, Jul 10 (acn) A Center for Latin American Political Studies will 
be opened in Venezuela at the former leper colony where
Argentinean-born Ernesto Che Guevara once served as a doctor during his
tour of Latin America.

Alexis Toledo, mayor of the Vargas municipality, said the facility will 
be named after the Argentinean-Cuban revolutionary, says a PL report.

Fifty five years ago, Guevara arrived in Venezuela during a motorcycle 
tour of the continent he made with the purpose of learning first hand 
the reality of the people of the region. He served as a doctor in the 
leper colony then located in a place known as Cabo Blanco.

Toledo told the VEA Venezuelan newspaper that the new center will 
provide a space for those interested on discussing and studying the 
Left political thinking in Latin America.

The Center will have a conference room and a library that will house 
the work of the Latin American thinkers.
