New embassy memos describe Venezuela's economic fiasco and say some of Chávez's key allies – Argentina, Brasil and Cuba – are concerned about the direction.

ANOTHER cable dismisses Chavez's nuclear ambitions, describing the government as too shambolic and broken to exploit uranium or build reactors.
