WASHINGTON, March 6 (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will visit Brazil and Chile next week, an aide said on Thursday, making a trip that could be overshadowed by a dispute over Colombia's bombing of rebels on Ecuadorean soil.
State Department spokesman Tom Casey said Rice's March 13-15 journey would include two stops in Brazil -- the capital, Brasilia, and the city of Salvador, the former slave port that is now capital of the Brazilian state of Bahia.
She will also visit the Chilean capital, Santiago.
Casey said Rice would focus on regional and bilateral issues, including biofuels cooperation with Brazil and trade with Chile. He said he did not expect the Ecuador-Colombia dispute to dominate the trip, which was previously scheduled.
The crisis erupted on Saturday when Colombia conducted a bombing raid in Ecuador that killed a senior rebel of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, a Marxist guerrilla group that has waged a four-decade-old war against the Colombian state.
Ecuador, Venezuela and Nicaragua have broken diplomatic relations with Colombia over the incident and Venezuela on Wednesday moved tanks as well as air and sea forces toward the Colombian border.
The United States has called for a negotiated solution to the crisis, which pits OPEC members Venezuela and Ecuador against Colombia, which receives billions of dollars in U.S. military aid. (Writing by Arshad Mohammed; Editing by Peter Cooney)
