Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is suffering from a new, severe respiratory infection following cancer surgery.

Information Minister Ernesto Villegas says Chavez's condition continues to be very delicate.

The 58-year-old president returned to Venezuela last month, after being treated for cancer in Cuba, but has not appeared in public since.

Many Venezuelans have been demanding full details about his health.
