      Venezuela ends 'dictatorship' row 


     
             
            President Chavez and the Church have clashed before 
      Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has met Roman Catholic leaders to solve 
a row sparked when a cardinal said the country was becoming a dictatorship. 
      The two sides agreed to tone down their rhetoric after the meeting on 
Wednesday at the presidential palace. 

      Vice-President Jose Vicente Rangel said both sides would "adopt a tone 
more apt for democratic dialogue". 

      Mr Chavez had called the Church's behaviour "undoubtedly a provocation" 
and demanded an apology. 

      The dispute began when Cardinal Rosalio Castillo Lara, the most senior 
Catholic clergyman in Venezuela, told thousands of worshippers at a pilgrimage 
in honour of the Virgin Mary that the country had "lost its democratic course 
and presents the semblance of a dictatorship". 

      'Shameful' 

      Mr Chavez hit back, saying this was "shameful for the Catholic Church" 
and urging it to stay out of politics. 

      In the past, Mr Chavez and several Venezuelan church representatives have 
clashed over the way the government is carrying out social and economic reform 
in the country. 

      The head of the Venezuelan Bishops Conference, Monsignor Ubaldo Santanam, 
welcomed the meeting with the president. 

      "It is the start of a dialogue to better the relations between the church 
and the government," he said.
