The US is occupying Haiti under the guise of sending aid to the earthquake-stricken population, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said during his weekly television show on Sunday night, according to a Reuters report.

The news agency quoted Venezuela's leader as saying that he had read that 3,000 US troops were being deployed to Haiti - "marines armed as if they were going to war."

Chavez reportedly stated that he had not seen any American soldiers aiding the Haitian people. "Are they looking for the injured? You don't see them. I haven't seen them. Where are they?" he asked.
