Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez returned last week from Cuba, but hasn't been seen since he was immediately whisked to a military hospital. It's unclear what his game plan is 鈥� be sworn in, resign and let his vice president take over? Die in his homeland? The questions is: What is Chavismo without Chavez?

Ch谩vez returned to Venezuela from Cuba on Monday. He is being treated for cancer at a military hospital.

The pictures were the first of Ch谩vez during his 68-day absence. The Venezuelan commander is in Cuba for cancer treatment.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has not been seen for weeks. He's reportedly in Cuba, undergoing treatment. El Pais thought it had a "global exclusive." But the photo of a man surrounded by doctors and with a breathing tube going down his throat was of someone else.

Statements from Evo Morales and Venezuela's foreign minister seem to indicate things are looking up for the ailing leader. Ch谩vez hasn't been seen in public since Dec. 10.

The Venezuelan president remains in Cuba, receiving treatment for cancer. His supporters 鈥� with the backing of the Supreme Court 鈥� say that he can be sworn in at a later date.

The announcement by the government confirms suspicions the president's illness will keep him in Cuba past Thursday when he was scheduled to be sworn in. Chavez underwent his fourth cancer-related surgery in Cuba last month.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is scheduled to be sworn in for a fourth term on Thursday, but he remains in Cuba undergoing treatment for cancer. In a very loose interpretation of the constitution, the government is prepared to inaugurate him later. The opposition says the constitution is being violated.

Venezuela is facing a political crisis. Longtime President Hugo Chavez is being treated in Cuba for a recurrence of cancer and resulting complications. He is supposed to be sworn in to a third term as president this week, but he might not be well enough to attend the inauguration. What then?

Venezuelan officials say their president Hugo Chavez remains in a "delicate" condition in a Havana hospital following his fourth cancer surgery. If Chavez cannot be sworn in to a new presidential term on Jan. 10, a process of selecting a new president will begin. How well prepared is the U.S. government is for a post-Chavez Venezuela?
