'Rich' G20 meeting waste of time, says Chavez

---

CARACAS, Nov 15 (Reuters): Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez said an emergency economy meeting of world leaders in Washington was a "waste of time" that excluded the poor and was hosted by people responsible for the global financial meltdown.
Socialist Chavez is a fierce critic of the United States and avowed foe of outgoing US President George W Bush. He blames the world economic slowdown on unbridled capitalism run wild.
Leaders representing the Group of Twenty (G20) group of countries descended on Washington Friday at the start of a crisis meeting to discuss ways to stimulate the world economy.
"Really, I don't know what they are going to do in Washington, the host is to blame," Chavez said. "They are going waste their time."
