Media Reaction: Western Hemisphere: Venezuela, Chavez's policies;
Sao Paulo
Title- Chavez takes one more step toward nationalizing the economy
Main editorial in business oriented Valor Economico (5-12) states:
"...One of the indications that the oil business is not doing well
[in Venezuela] is the nationalization of 60 contractor
companies....As the crisis gets worse, Venezuela's
President....increases his control over all sectors that are vital
to the economy...Chavez is destroying democracy in his
country....This way, the Bolivarian Socialism becomes each day more
akin to the dictatorial regimes that destroyed the country - and it
tends to have the same end."
