President turned strikebreaker
President Chavez is clinging on--but at a terrible cost to his country
EVER since he took office as Venezuela's president in February 1999, Hugo Chavez has been trying to bring the powerful state-owned oil company, Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA), under the control of his "Bolivarian revolution", a mishmash of populist nationalism. He argues that the firm is a state within a state. Four years, five PDVSA chairmen and three strikes later, he claims to be on the point of achieving his goal. If so, that may ensure his own survival ...
