Brazilian president Lula calls Chavez "a great peacemaker"

'Who was the great peacemaker in the conflict between Colombia and Ecuador? It was clearly President Chavez,' Lula told a news conference in the northern Brazilian city of Recife, on the second day of a visit by Chavez. Chavez helped prevent what seemed to be the beginning of a serious conflict in the region on March 1, when Colombian troops attacked in Ecuadorian territory a camp of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), the country's largest rebel group, he said.
