Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez vowed on Monday to conquer cancer and said his "return has begun."
He spoke from the balcony of the presidential palace the same day he arrived unannounced in his nation's capital and one day before the country is set to celebrate its bicentennial.
Chavez, dressed in military fatigues and wearing a red beret, appeared in good spirits. His speech was uncharacteristically short.
The president said he was under the strict supervision of his doctors, eating well and exercising.
Cheering supporters of Chavez filled the space below the balcony -- waving flags and pictures of their beloved "comandante."
"Thank you, Fidel! For taking care of him," they chanted.
COMMENT: I think this is not a very good notice for the country because Chavez is transformimg Venezuela in his country , he make all the decisions and is enought time for chavez to go out from the government.
Chavez, 56, returned to Venezuela unexpectedly early Monday. He had been in Cuba for weeks undergoing treatment after doctors performed emergency surgery. Chavez announced last week that they had removed a cancerous tumor.
Prior to that announcement, the Venezuelan leader had kept a notably low profile in the three weeks since officials announced that doctors operated on him, sparking rampant rumors about his health and the country's political future.
