remember this?

somebody will want to be paid:

 

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro met with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping on Friday in an attempt to secure help from Beijing for his economically-stricken country.

 

China is Venezuela's main creditor and is "willing to provide whatever help it can offer," Chinese Premier Li Keqiang reportedly promised.

 

'Big sister'

 

At the start of his state visit, Maduro bowed three times to honor Chairman Mao in Tiananmen Square.

Xi and Maduro signed deals on Friday worth 'billions of dollars,' according to Venezuela's socialist leader.

Maduro is also hoping for a new loan worth $5 billion (€4.28 billion) as well as a six-month extension to the grace period on existing debt.

Beijing has already loaned $50 billion to Caracas over the last decade, which the South American nation has been repaying in oil shipments. Some $20 billion is still owed to Beijing.

Maduro referred to China as Venezuela's "big sister."
