Agreed, the Chinese will not accept the current BS from Chavez. But Chavez is really behind the 8 ball -- take a look at all the dismal news for Venezuela here for example: http://english.eluniversal.com/ (granted it's the FoxNews for Hugo).

He needs capital and only the Chinese can provide it -- Russia is one step behind Greece in the insolvency line. And if Hugo screws with thee Chinese, it won't be good for him -- consider that these are folks that run over their own citizens with tanks for having peaceful protests.

Rusoro showing a little spine for a change isn't bad for us, but they can't change much -- China can. To quote an old Crystallex proverb, I expect something good sooner rather than later, as the situation grows more dire it's all good for us.
