HAVANA, Cuba (AFP): Cuba's President Fidel Castro was shown on Cuban television Tuesday meeting with his Venezuelan counterpart Hugo Chavez in the first images of the ailing leader broadcast in three months.

The 80-year-old revolutionary leader, who was shown, standing and chatting with Chavez, looked far fitter than he did three months ago.

Cuban television said Castro met with his Venezuelan ally on Monday.

The White House said it had no immediate comment on the broadcast.
