NEW YORK CITY - A visit to Russia by Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is in the works, The Kremlin confirmed on Tuesday. The expected trip is a sign of continued close ties between the two major-oil producing nations which are both at odds with the United States, Reuters reports.
In a call with reporters, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the visit was at "a high degree of preparation," and that all that remained was to agree to a date.
