"President Hugo Chávez has called Foreign Minister Elías Jaua to Havana; his visit has been postponed," a diplomatic source that requested anonymity told AFP.
The announcement came hours before Jaua departed from Caracas for Lima. Sources were not available to confirm whether the cancellation of the trip is linked to a health setback of President Chávez, who has been convalescing in Havana for more than two months following a fourth cancer operation.
Jaua was expected in Lima on Thursday night at the military airport, where he was to be received by Foreign Minister Rafael Roncagliolo.
The Venezuelan Foreign Minister was to be received on Friday by President Ollanta Humala, who traveled to Havana on January 12.
"Jaua's visit will be rescheduled in the coming days," added the Peruvian diplomatic source.
