CARACAS (Reuters) - Venezuelan business chamber Fedecamaras on Tuesday received Vice President Delcy Rodriguez for the opening of its annual assembly, a sign of easing tensions between business leaders and the socialist government following decades of bitter rivalry.
A 2002 coup against late socialist leader Hugo Chavez briefly installed a Fedecamaras chief as Venezuela's de facto president. The group for years said business was crippled by indiscriminate expropriations and price controls carried out by the ruling Socialist Party.
