This progress will make it possible to finance two Militant reporting teams that are coming right up. Two days after this issue comes off the press, Militant editor Argiris Malapanis and correspondent Róger Calero are flying to Venezuela for a one-week fact-finding trip. They will report on the latest developments in the conflict between the struggles of workers and peasants, on one hand, and the efforts of Venezuelan capitalists and the U.S. imperialist rulers to defeat them.
In the second half of October another team of Militant reporters will travel to Havana to provide firsthand coverage from revolutionary Cuba.
